Default static

go to o'rielys and get some of dupont's static prestaturated wipes.

works very well.

i have also used arosol window cleaner work but not sugested by paint manufactures. the more you touch or blow air acrost the more static you will make. be prepaired to do some buffing it is almost impossable to get rid of it all.

they also make a static gun that looks like a air gun you c=blow the air over the surface and the adimized air causes the static to go away. using this between coat is the ideal but that gun is around 200-300 dollar.

hope i helped.

we use dryer sheets they worked good do not use the one with fragrance in them it will cause fish eye when you are ready to paint wipe it down with prep sol then go over it with the dryer sheets worked for us hope this helps

^^^^^ We do this also, but we wrap it up in the tack cloth.
