Static attack! Time to get the humidifiers going

@mijostyn please share this formula once you solve your residue issues. 

After I got my record cleaning machine I stumbled into a cleaning formulation that totally mitigates the formation of static. Treated records will not allow static charge for up to 6 months and counting. I expect it will wear off eventually but that is not the problem. It does leave a slight residue on the record which you can see on the stylus after about 10 sides. I am in the process of lowering the concentration of ingredients to see if I can find a formula that will control static but not leave a noticeable residue

I live in the northern climates and never have a problem with LP static and no humidifier either. 

I use a good wet cleaner on all LPs, previously the Record Doctor and now a Humminguru ultrasonic. 

Clean and then place in a mofi antistatic sleeve and have never had to use any type of anti stat device.  The Humminguru was the best investment I have ever made.  The Record doctor also worked well but was manual operation.  

Just add humidity.

I place a couple of large/wide/shallow enameled metal bowls out when we have Santa Ana winds and/or start using the heat and let the filtered tap water evaporate.

One placed in the main bedroom and one in the living room (both placed on the tops of fairly high 5'+ cabinets due to our cats).

Aside from Hi-fi stuff I also sleep/breathe better .

I used to use an ultrasonic humidifier, but got tired of cleaning/sterilizing it between fills.

The evaporative bowls work just as well.

Thank you for the recommendations. I like the black monolith. These days, it is nice to have stuff that looks nice as well as is functional. Very enjoyable after a life of compromising on looks for greater performance, finally having both. Very rewarding.

OP the Furutech destat is worth the investment, I have one.
