Not your ordinary question

This may not be the appropriate thing to do but I figured if anyone knew it
would be computer users.
I am trying to find information on a spray that is used around electronics
to reduce static electricity.
Can anyone help?
I am looking for an air spray not a surface spray.
If you can just get me the name of the product I can go from there.
Thanks to anyone who can and does help.

Having reread your question, what do you mean "not a surface spray"? It
is surfaces that build and hold the static charge. If you actually mean
you want to reduce the formation of static electricity, then raise the
humidity in the room. Simply raise the water content in the air.

Make your own. Fill a spray bottle with water and a very small amount
of liquid fabric softner, spray it around the area needed.

I don't want to spray directly on a surface and risk issues. I simply want
to spray in the air surrounding the machine(s).

Thank you - and one other person - were the only ones of 5 who gave me valid
information.
Can the spray be sprayed in the air to land where ever or must it be sprayed
directly on a surface?
Again thank you.

Then simply raise the humidity level of the room. Anything you would use
other than water will end up on the surfaces anyway. As would the fabric
softener.

Thanks, I've been doing that all day.
But since you used one word different than I did checked just in case. No
luck.

I've always used it sprayed in the air to land, not where ever but near
where you want it to go.

For example if you're trying to keep your home PC static free you'd
spray around waist level aimed a bit down so as to get the carpet near
the PC and around that general area. It seems to be the carpet that
generates the most static.

Not exactly what your problem is but there are anti-stat chair mats that
dissipate static electricity.

there may be an underlying
issue regarding the improper
grounding of the equipment.

for example if your pc
and a bunch of wiring
is on or near your desk, then your
desk will likely give
you annoying jolts of static
when you touch it.

therefore, the desk needs to
be properly grounded.

the reason you got
shocked by static
is because you made
for a good ground.
