Go to the super market or big drug store and in the laundry products
section get "Static Guard." This is an anti-static spray that comes in
a blue and orange can.
Spray a VERY light mist about 3 feet above your work surface and let
it settle. Then roll out the film. In extreme cases you can also spray
a very light mist above rolled out film. This will reduce the static
attraction problems a lot. The key is to use as little as
possible...it doesn't take much. If used excessively you can actually
kill all of the static attraction on the work surface and then your
film will float in air currents and be difficult to roll out in a
completely different way. Enjoy.
