What do people place on their platter for dust protection

Just wanted to hit everyone up for some responses. I'm tired of worrying about taking my pristine VM cleaned vinyl on a platter thats been idle for a week. I have a TT in which a dustcover woukd be inpractable. I hadnt googled for it yet. I just wanted to ask here. Plus I'm recovering from surgery and have some extra time.

An old 1960’s comedy record works for me.  No plans on ever playing it again.

The "air purifier" would need to be just an air 'filter'. Purifiers work by releasing negative ions that are attracted to impurities in the air which are all of a positive charge. That has the effect of making the particulants "heavier than air" and they settle out. Voila: clean air. Dirty floors and surfaces, yes, but clean air.

But, I think if it were me, I'd just throw an old pizza box lid over the tt and call it a day.

Wouldn’t ion type purifiers be good for the sound? That’s why deionizers and anti static devices work on CDs, LPs, cables and such - they bombard the things with a stream of negative ions.

Pop quiz - why is Positive charge bad for the sound?
