Powder sticking to inside of funnel

[Steve crawford]

I have a Lee red powder funnel and am having trouble with Fine powders sticking to the inside of the funnel.  It looks like maybe 15 to 20 flakes of powder try to stick to the funnel about half way down the funnel.  Larger granules of powder seem to stick less.  I think it is static.  I have tried to clean the funnel with solvent but did not help.  Any ideas?

Bounce dryer sheets. Wipe funnel with the dryer sheet. No more static cling

I will have to get some new sheets.  Mine are all dried out.  Used them when I was loading Black Powder rounds.  Thanks

A little bit of powdered graphite wiped off with the dryer sheet may work even better.

Been preaching this method for years.  It works.
