Those who are full of hot air can also blow gently and will generate enough humidity to reduce the static.

Leica suggests spraying anti-static spray in the chamber (!). You could also ground the metal in the chamber using metal wire touching something metal outside the chamber (the Russian post-doc solution, very clever). We keep 100% EtOH in a small container (about 100 ml) in the back of the chamber to reduce static, which I learned from a long ago histonet post, so I have no idea why it works. Otherwise, buy an anti-static brush, which I hear exists, but have never seen.
