Good day! Thanks for the advise. Being a busy woman I tend to go for the wash and wear cloths which are mostly polyester 100%.  No ironing no drycleaning no maneno mingi. Lakini hiyo @Welder ameonyesha huwa pure cotton white in colour. Shida ni miaka, just ignore, truth is we all wear clothing with certain percentage of polyester. Try undressing your favorite t shirt in total darkness and see how it sparks!

True, That is why some oil tankers are fitted with iron chains touching the ground on their rare to earth the static electricity and avoid dangerous sparks. Observed that the charges behave like miniature lightning bolts at night. I AM trust in GOD, I AM belief in THYSELF

It's your car upholstery dear.Quite common where the car is fairly new and has cloth material.As the seats age,the effect lessens but the easiest way to beat it is to fit semi or leather covers.The other temporary way of keeping the small shocks away is,to wipe you seat with a damp cloth.The amount of static electricity generated by cloth is minute and therefore harmless.The same cannot be said of static electricity generated by a car cruising in dry weather. This can be fatal especially when fueling and that is why racing cars are earthed while re-fuelling.....and pliz dear,don't tie chains to your car as advised by the welder.You will look like an idiot since you cannot earth cloth static electricity.That is meant for trucks running in the rain. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Thanks @ Old Niqqa. You are right on the red above and wrong on the blue. My seats are full leather But do I say. Will follow you advise and report back. Thanks for the assurance too. ION.... How are the magurus'?I mean all of them. That night out at Upperhill or a joint around Wilson is long overdue. We can dance till 1.00am and another dance till 3.00am and then scatter to our respective homes happy. Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.

Mr.Scrotal, is the static electricity on the car body or the panty of the driver?  Portfolio: Sold
