Muting while sweeping

[Lachlan Hayden]

So I was playing a sweep and I noticed that it sounded so bad compared to what I wanted to play more on that song later. So anyways I always thought that my sweeping was really good but today I figured out its not that great haha, so I want to ask you guys how do you mute the strings when sweeping I know you’re supposed to put your right hand near the bridge but it seems to be not working. Maybe I’m not doing it correctly? So let me know.
Thanks
I’m so sick of this atup correct on the site ugh, I just noticed it auto corrected auto haha.

I needed to really think about this one!
When I ascend on any shape across the fret board, my right palm immediately mutes the strings naturally. When I descend its a different muting technique for me. I actually use the left hand to mute previous strings in a sweeping pattern. I might be able to show this explanation in a video

That Would Be Great
