Abstract
This describes a portable non-pressurized anti-static device for eliminating static cling on clothes on which static electricity has built up. An absorbent material impregnated with an anti-static solution is supported by a frame. A cover, when in place, prevents the anti-static solution from being rubbed off or otherwise removed from the absorbent material until it is ready to be used. When static cling occurs, the wearer removes the cover and rubs the impregnated material against the area of the clothes affected, thereby removing the static electricity.
