I've heard somewhere of a product called GoJo that can be used to minimize static-electricity charges in film holders (particularly the plastic dark slides), as a means of reducing dust problems. Can't recall the details though. (Middle-aging memory, I guess.) Any help on this? Or other slick ways of reducing dust?

Hey now that's a new one! I suppose cleaning with gojo may help but I certainly wouldn't put it inside the holder. and don't polish it off with a wool or polyester rag. I wipe my holders down with mineral spirits. Cleans off the grease pencil notes too.
A few guys on the Largeformat list serve blow off the holders and then keep them in ziplock bags. Others have found a ziplock bag made for the computer industry that's anti static. |

I brush mine thoroughly with a Zone VI anti-static brush before I load them. I tried the zip-lock bags but that seemed too much work. |
