    static shocks

    Like myself no doubt many of you suffer static shocks when getting out of vehicle etc. The other day saw a product 'anti-static spray' thought give it a go and amazingly it worked completely over a few hot dry days [the worst] could not induce a shock try as I might. Bought it from a woolies store, it is by Helmar and their web page is www.helmar.com.au comes in a pump spray bottle, such an easy solution and amazingly completly effective.

    Where do you spray it ?

    All anti-static sprays I've seen are just detergent - it absorbs moisture and helps the charge leak away.

        Hello Mike, just a light spray over the driving seat and the same over the back of the clothes being worn, whatever it is it really works and that is what is needed. Have tried the hanging straps, useless.

          If you operate a High Frequency Radio in the car then static discharge interferes with reception.

          What really works is to follow the practice used on aircraft and have a trailing wire with spiky ends, just like on the wingtips of large planes.

              Does this mean you need to spray yourself (back) every time you get in the car in a new set of clothes?
