Does anyone know how to reduce static electricity in a gold vile to keep flower gold from sticking to the vile

I never knew it was a issue. If you wrap a piece of wire around the outside of the bottle and ground it, that should in principle help.

Gold of any nature should not be magnetic. But perhaps having it stuck on the sides was a humidity issue, slight bit of damp? For GODS Sake man. Stop breathing in the viles.

That is a very interesting situation I know sand can have a static charge , maybe the tiniest about of water vapor will stoop the static Electricity . I’ve heard of using dish soap when panning flower gold will break the tension of the water and the flower gold will not float
