hints and tips for static on acrylic?

Post by gavinr »

has anyone got any tips for dealing with static on acrylic glazing?

ultimatly I intend to get a used keencut excalibur but for now, as i also have a laser as part of my business, i'm experimenting with some acrylic from Lion which is perfect apart from being a bit too fumey when i cut it and worse of all the static.

has anyone got any tricks or tips how to deal with this?

i'm actually wondering about an anti static gun, i like my hifi and records and in the audio groups static of new records is often discussed and although i have never tried one the anti stat guns are highly regarded. anyone ever tried one?

This is probably just about the best anti-static cleaner which you can get;
