Title: Method for neutralizing static electricity with mixed atmospheres

Abstract: A method for simultaneously neutralizing positive and negative static electric charges on surfaces consisting essentially of contacting a first atmosphere with a positive static charge composition (108) by spraying (125) an effective amount of the composition into the atmosphere, contacting a second atmosphere with a negative static charge composition (8) by spraying (25) an effective amount of the negative static charge composition into the second atmosphere, mixing (126) the resulting treated first atmosphere with the resulting treated second atmosphere to thereby form a mixed atmosphere, and contacting at least one surface (16) having positive and negative static electric charges thereon with the mixed atmosphere to thereby simultaneously neutralize positive and negative static charges on the surface.
