The best antistatic sprays, compared.
Top pick: Surakey 100 ml anti-static spray Best value: Suds Up 250 ml anti-cling spray – Same 250 ml fill for 52p less, unscented and made in the United Kingdom, with a thinner sample of 4.0 from 9 reviews. Updated 16 October 2026.
Static cling on synthetic dresses, skirts and tights shows up in dry, heated UK rooms, and paper or textile surfaces hold dust when they hold a charge. The aerosol is 31561, sold for paper, textiles and airborne dust, and the safety data sheet classes that can as extremely flammable (H222). A spray does not replace a wrist strap, a grounded mat or EN 1149-5 clothing. A 5.0 from one to three ratings is not treated as better evidence. The [antistatic spray buying guide](/hub/occupational-safety-accessories/antistatic-spray/sub/antistatic-spray-buying-guide) separates pump from aerosol before you use the rank. The other product is a 400 ml industrial aerosol, 31561, sold for a temporary drop in surface charge and for airborne dust on paper and textile work.

Personal buying guide
Question 1 of 2
What are you treating?
The Surakey listing tells you to shake the 100 ml bottle and spray from about 15 cm onto clothes, a sweater or hair. The shelf price is £1.99, the lowest in this comparison, and the title also mentions a car. Across 3 amazon.co.uk reviews the headline is 5.0, and the only text in the saved listing is Very good. That line does not say how long cling stays away, or whether the liquid marks a pale dress. Scent, origin and a delicate-fabric answer are missing from the listing. Furniture and all-fabrics questions on the page have no answer either. At this price you are buying a small trial with almost no written UK experience behind it.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A cheap 100 ml trial on ordinary clothes when you can accept almost no written UK reviews
Less suitable: Pale or delicate fabric, and anyone who wants a large review sample before they buy
Specifications
Common questions
What size does the Surakey title state?
Set of 1, 4.12 oz and 100 ml. No weight and no unit-count field are printed. The colour line says 100ml.
How does the listing say to spray it?
Shake it a few times, then spray about 15 cm from the clothes. A bullet also names hair. Furniture, scent and all fabrics are questions with no answer.
What do the reviews say?
The headline is 5.0 from 3 reviews. The saved listing has one UK text, and it says only “Very good”.
This generic bottle is listed at £8.99 with 100 ml in the title, for clothes, fabrics, sheets, sweaters, carpets and furniture, and the country of origin is China. The headline is 5.0 from 3 amazon.co.uk reviews, and the saved listing has no review text, so the stars do not describe a dress, a sheet or a carpet. The scent field says refer to description, while one bullet promises a fragrance and another says there is no unpleasant odour and no skin irritation. Contains liquid contents is printed as No, next to a 100 ml title and a 136 g item weight. All-fabrics and stain questions have no answer. You pay more than for the 250 ml BritishBasics bottle and you get almost nothing written to check.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Only a buyer who already wants this 100 ml generic and can ignore the missing review text
Less suitable: Pale clothes, and anyone comparing price per millilitre with the 250 ml bottles that have written reviews
Specifications
Common questions
What fill is printed for this generic 100 ml spray?
100 ml is in the title only. Unit count is 1.0 count and the size line is 1 count, pack of 1. Contains liquid contents is No. Item weight is 136 g.
What does the listing say about scent and skin?
The scent field says refer to description. One bullet promises a fragrance and another says no unpleasant odour and no skin irritation. All fabrics and stains are questions with no answer.
Is there a review text?
No. The headline is 5.0 from 3 reviews, and the saved listing has no review text. Origin is China.
The generic 290 ml spray is £9.09, and the title names hair, clothes, furniture, fabrics and electronics. The page then asks whether it is safe for electronics and does not answer, so the title is not a reason to spray a circuit board. The headline is 5.0 from 1 amazon.co.uk review, with no text in the saved listing. Contains liquid contents is No, the unit count is 1.0 count rather than a millilitre field, and the origin is China. Scent says refer to description. A 290 ml title looks generous beside Hemline's 50 ml, and £9.09 still buys less written evidence than Suds Up at £5.99 or BritishBasics at £6.51.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A large household bottle only if you already accept a single rating and an unanswered electronics line
Less suitable: Circuit boards, live equipment, and pale clothes, where this listing gives you no written check
Specifications
Common questions
Does this listing say it is safe on electronics?
The title names electronics. The listing asks whether it is safe for electronics and does not answer. Bullets mention clothing and furniture around electronic equipment.
What fill and liquid flag are printed?
290 ml is in the title. Unit count is 1.0 count. Contains liquid contents is No. Item weight is 363 g. Origin is China.
Is there a review text?
No. The headline is 5.0 from 1 review, and the saved listing has no review text.
This is Ambersil part 31561 in a tin, 0.4 litres at £14.50, with the United Kingdom as country of origin. The listing recommends it for the paper industry, the textile industry and airborne dust, and the bullet says it neutralises and dissipates static. The headline is 4.6 from 4 amazon.co.uk reviews, and the saved listing has no review text, so that star line is thinner evidence than 4.4 from 87 on the other 31561 listing. Electronics, residue and fabrics are asked and not answered. Item form is printed as solid while the liquid volume is 0.4 litres. The CRC sheet for this part still classes the aerosol as extremely flammable and keeps it off live equipment and off plasma, LED and LCD screens.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A buyer who specifically wants the tin listing of part 31561 and will read the CRC sheet rather than the four-review headline
Less suitable: Clothes, and anyone comparing star ratings, because 4.6 from 4 is a thinner sample than 4.4 from 87
Specifications
Common questions
What use does this Ambersil tin listing state?
Recommended uses are the paper industry, the textile industry and airborne dust reduction. The bullet says it neutralises and dissipates static electricity. Part number 31561. Container type is tin.
Does it answer electronics, residue or fabrics?
It asks all three and does not answer them. Item form is printed as solid. Liquid volume is 0.4 litres. Unit count is 1.0 count. Origin is the United Kingdom.
Is there a review text?
No. The headline is 4.6 from 4 reviews, and the saved listing has no review text. The shelf price is £14.50.
Ambersil 31561 is a 400 ml aerosol at £14.50, made in the United Kingdom by CRC Industries UK Ltd, and the bullets describe a rapid drop in electrostatic charge for paper and textile work and for airborne dust. Across 87 amazon.co.uk reviews the headline is 4.4, and 23 texts cover plastic, chairs, a sofa, blouses, dresses and workshop glasses, with the effect lasting a couple of hours, a few days or over a month in those accounts. Two of those texts say it made no difference. The CRC safety data sheet classes this aerosol as extremely flammable, H222, and also lists H229, H319 and H336. The sheet tells you to spray from 23 to 30 cm, wait four to five minutes, and keep it off live equipment and off plasma, LED and LCD screens. An Amazon bullet that says non-toxic does not cancel those statements. Scent on the listing is Amber, and contains liquid contents is Yes.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Paper, textile and dusty workshop surfaces when you will follow the CRC sheet, including the 23 to 30 cm spray and the four-to-five-minute wait
Less suitable: Dresses, tights, live equipment, and plasma, LED or LCD screens
Specifications
Common questions
What job does the Ambersil 31561 listing state?
The bullets say it rapidly reduces electrostatic charges and is particularly useful in the paper and textile industries and anywhere prone to airborne dust. Surface recommendation is paper. Scent is Amber.
Does the listing say whether it is flammable?
It asks the question and does not answer it. The bullets say non-toxic and biodegradable. Item form is printed as solid, and contains liquid contents is Yes.
What do the 23 review texts cover?
Plastic, chairs, a sofa, blouses, dresses and workshop glasses. Duration in those texts runs from a couple of hours, to a few days, to over a month. Two texts say it made no difference. The headline is 87 reviews.
Hemline is a 50 ml anti-static spray at £6.21, and the first 50 of its 396 amazon.co.uk reviews, headlined at 4.3, are mostly about dresses, skirts, tights and coats. Reviewers describe cling easing on those garments, and the same texts keep returning to white marks, a smell that runs from none to a strong floral scent, and a bottle that empties because 50 ml is a small fill. At that shelf price the liquid is about £124 a litre, so weekday spraying costs more than the 250 ml bottles. The listing itself names no surface, no scent and no pack count, so the garment story sits in the reviews. A few texts try hair, a cat or polybags and report that those uses failed. One reviewer found a barcode covering the warning.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A handbag bottle for dresses, skirts and tights when you accept a 50 ml fill and the mark reports
Less suitable: Heavy weekly use, where 250 ml costs about the same money, and pale fabric you have not tested on a hidden patch
Specifications
Common questions
What size and material does the Hemline listing print?
The title says 50 ml. The material line says Fabric and the colour line says White. No pack count, scent or surface is printed. Item weight is 100 g.
Does the listing say how long it lasts or whether it marks?
It asks both questions, and how much to spray, and it does not answer them. In the first 50 reviews, people report a few hours, white marks, and smells from none to a strong floral scent.
What do those reviews use it on?
Mostly dresses, skirts, tights and coats. A few texts cover hair, a cat or polybags, and those uses failed for the writers. One text says a barcode covered the warning.
BritishBasics is the top pick for clothes in this set: a clear 250 ml anti-cling spray at £6.51, with 4.1 from 545 amazon.co.uk reviews, the largest sample on the page. In the first 50 texts, many people say dresses and blouses stop clinging. The same texts record the limits you should expect: marks on light fabric, a pump that streamed instead of misting, a smell, no ingredient list, and cling returning after a few hours. The listing asks whether it suits delicate fabrics and does not answer, so a pale dress still needs a hidden patch before you spray the rest. There is no scent field and no country of origin. At about £26 a litre from that shelf price, you are paying for 250 ml and for a review sample large enough to include the failures.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Regular use on synthetic dresses, skirts and blouses when you want the largest UK review sample in this set
Less suitable: Pale chiffon without a hidden patch test, and anyone who needs one coat to last a full day or a wash
Specifications
Common questions
What fill and price are on the BritishBasics listing?
The title says 250 ml, clear. The shelf price is £6.51. Item weight is 270 g. There is no unit-count field and no pack count.
Does the listing answer the delicate-fabric question?
No. It asks whether it removes static from all fabrics, whether it leaves a scent, and whether it is safe for delicate fabrics. The bullets do not answer those three lines.
What comes up in the first 50 reviews?
Many texts say dresses and blouses stop clinging. Others report marks on light fabric, a pump that streamed, a smell, no ingredient list, or cling back after a few hours. The headline is 545 reviews.
This listing is two BritishBasics clear 250 ml bottles at £13.02, which is two times the £6.51 single and not a pack discount. The model is the same FAM0646, the bullets match the single, and the headline is the same 4.1 from 545 reviews. The first 50 review texts are the same reviewers and wording as the single bottle B09WRTM4GB, so they are not a separate test of the twin pack. If dresses and blouses stop clinging for you with the single, a second bottle means you reorder less often. Those copied texts still include light-fabric marks and cling back the same day. The listing still does not answer how often to reapply or whether the spray leaves marks.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A household that already uses the BritishBasics 250 ml bottle and wants a second one in the same order
Less suitable: A first purchase, where the single bottle at £6.51 is the same liquid for half the outlay
Specifications
Common questions
What is in the BritishBasics pack of 2?
The title says two units of the clear 250 ml anti-cling spray. The listing says the details below apply to each unit. The shelf price is £13.02. Model FAM0646.
Why is the review count 545?
The headline is 4.1 from 545, and the first 50 review texts are the same reviewers, dates and wording as the single-bottle listing B09WRTM4GB. The saved listing does not present them as reviews of the twin pack.
Does the listing answer reapplication or marks?
It asks how often to reapply, whether it is safe for all fabric types, and whether it leaves marks. The bullets do not answer. The copied reviews include light-fabric marks and same-day fade.
Suds Up is a 250 ml unscented anti-cling spray at £5.99, made in the United Kingdom by McKLords, for clothes, tights, dresses, skirts, suits and gym wear. It is the best value in this set because you get the same 250 ml fill as BritishBasics for 52p less, with a bleach-free line and a printed patch test for delicate or speciality fabrics. The listing names polyester, viscose, elastane and blends. The headline is only 4.0 from 9 reviews, and the saved listing holds two texts. One says sofa shocks eased after applications over a week or two. The other says the bottle showed no ingredients and that polyester trousers behaved only while they were damp. A result that depends on the cloth staying wet is a real limit if you need the dress dry before you leave the house.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Everyday synthetic clothes when you want 250 ml, no added scent, and a lower shelf price than the BritishBasics bottle
Less suitable: Pale chiffon you have not patch-tested, and paper or textile plant work that belongs with the Ambersil can
Specifications
Common questions
What does the Suds Up listing say about delicate fabrics?
A bullet says it suits polyester, viscose, elastane and blends, and that you should patch-test delicate or speciality fabrics. The scent field says unscented.
Where is it made, and what is the fill?
Country of origin is the United Kingdom. Manufacturer is McKLords. Unit count is 250.0 millilitres. The shelf price is £5.99.
What do the two review texts say?
One says sofa shocks eased after applications over a week or two. The other says there were no ingredients on the bottle and that it only worked while polyester trousers were damp. The headline is 9 reviews.
Sucritude is an 80 ml unscented spray at £4.55, and the title points it at clothes, rugs, hair and furniture. The listing gives China as the country of origin and 109 g as the item weight. The headline is 4.0 from 1 amazon.co.uk review, and the saved listing has no review text, so you cannot tell whether a skirt stopped clinging or a rug still shocked. Delicate-fabric and stain questions on the page are unanswered. You pay more per millilitre than for the 250 ml clothing bottles, and you get a smaller fill. The unscented field is the clearest specification on the page, and it is not a fabric test.
Pros
Cons
Best for: An unscented bottle under 100 ml for clothes or soft furnishings when a single rating is enough for you
Less suitable: A dress you cannot risk marking, or paper and textile work that belongs with the Ambersil aerosol
Specifications
Common questions
Is a fill printed apart from the title?
The title says 80 ml. The unit count is 1.0 count, and the size field is not a volume. Item weight is 109 g.
What scent and surfaces are on the listing?
Scent is unscented, and a bullet says no smell. The title names clothes, rugs, hair and furniture. Stains and all fabrics are questions with no answer.
Is there a review text?
No. The headline is 4.0 from 1 review, and the saved listing has no review text.
This Ambersil page is £14.50 for 400 ml in the title, and it says the spray neutralises and dissipates static. The title model is 6130004020, the model field is BPSSA02315-6130004020, and the only bullet names part 31561, so the page does not show one clean part number. Electronics, residue and fabrics are asked and left unanswered. The headline is 4.0 from 1 amazon.co.uk review, with no text, so you cannot see what that star refers to. There is no scent, no weight and no country of origin. The same £14.50 on the reviewed 31561 listing buys 87 reviews and 23 texts. This offer leaves you to check which can will arrive.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Only if this exact ASIN is the one your supplier has already checked against the CRC 31561 sheet
Less suitable: A first buy, where the reviewed 31561 listing shows the same price with 87 reviews and 23 texts
Specifications
Common questions
Which part numbers are on this Ambersil listing?
The title says 6130004020 and 400 ml. The model and part are BPSSA02315-6130004020. The only bullet names 31561.
Does the listing name a surface?
No. It asks whether it can be used on electronics, whether it leaves a residue, and whether it is safe for fabrics, and it does not answer. Package quantity is 1.
Is there a review text?
No. The headline is 4.0 from 1 review, and the saved listing has no review text. The shelf price is £14.50.
This page compares 11 antistatic spray listings on amazon.co.uk with public UK sources: HSE guidance on explosive atmospheres, BS EN 1149-5:2018, BS EN IEC 61340-5-1:2024, the Aerosol Dispensers Regulations 2009, and the CRC Ambersil 31561 data sheets. Shelf prices and review counts come from those UK listings. Scores are not a lab test. A high star rating from one to three reviews is not treated as better evidence than a larger written sample.
Job the spray is for
30%Clothes and tights point to a pump. Paper, textiles and dust point to Ambersil 31561. Electronics assembly points to ESD controls, not a bottle.
Pump or flammable aerosol
25%The clothing listings are pumps. The Ambersil can is an extremely flammable aerosol on the CRC sheet (H222), with H229, H319 and H336.
Fill against how you carry it
20%50 ml is the handbag size and the costly fill per litre. 250 ml suits regular clothing use. 400 ml is the industrial can.
Review sample on the listing
15%A 4.1 from 545 reviews is stronger evidence than a 5.0 from one to three ratings with almost no text.
Claims the title does not prove
10%Lines about all fabrics, electronics or a non-toxic aerosol are not a standard and do not cancel the safety data sheet.
An antistatic spray on this page is either a clothing pump or the Ambersil 31561 aerosol. Start with the job, then the fill, then the size of the amazon.co.uk review sample. The rank is not a lab test. Prices are shelf prices in GBP. A spray does not replace a wrist strap, a grounded mat or EN 1149-5 clothing.
An antistatic spray in this amazon.co.uk set is one of two products. Clothing pumps, such as BritishBasics, Hemline and Suds Up, are sold to reduce cling on dresses, skirts, tights and other synthetics in dry, heated rooms. The other product is a 400 ml industrial aerosol, Ambersil 31561, sold for a temporary drop in surface charge and for airborne dust on paper and textile work. Quality is not the star rating alone.
The clothing products in this batch are pumps. Ambersil 31561 is a 400 ml aerosol classed as extremely flammable (H222) on the CRC sheet. Do not buy that can for a wedding dress, and do not treat an Amazon non-toxic line as cancelling H222, H319 or H336.
Several generics show 5.0 from one to three ratings and almost no text. BritishBasics is 4.1 from 545 reviews, and that sample includes failures as well as successes. Prefer the thicker written sample.
A generic title that mentions electronics is not a reason to spray a board. The Ambersil sheet says not to use that aerosol on live equipment or on plasma, LED or LCD screens. Electronics assembly belongs with BS EN IEC 61340-5-1 controls.
The first split is the job. Clothes, tights, dresses, skirts and gym wear point to a pump such as BritishBasics, Hemline or Suds Up. Paper, textile work and airborne dust point to Ambersil 31561. Electronics assembly points away from both. BS EN IEC 61340-5-1:2024 is the ESD programme for electronic parts at or above 100 V HBM, 200 V CDM and 35 V on isolated conductors. It does not cover flammable liquids, gases or powders. A clothing pump is not that programme.
Hemline is 50 ml at about £6.21, the handbag size, and about £124 a litre as a rule of thumb. BritishBasics is 250 ml at about £6.51, about £26 a litre. Suds Up is the same 250 ml at about £5.99. The Ambersil can is 400 ml at about £14.50, about £36 a litre. The BritishBasics twin pack at about £13.02 is two times £6.51 with no pack discount, and it repeats the single bottle’s 545 ratings. Prefer a named brand with a thick UK review sample over a generic 5.0 from one to three ratings.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You want a dress, skirt or pair of tights to stop clinging. BritishBasics 250 ml has the largest amazon.co.uk review sample in this set, 4.1 from 545, and those texts include marks on light fabric as well as cling that stopped. Patch-test pale cloth before you spray the rest.
You want the same 250 ml fill for less than the BritishBasics bottle, without an added scent. Suds Up is about £5.99, made in the United Kingdom, and the listing names a patch test for delicate fabrics. The sample is thinner: 4.0 from 9 reviews, including one report that polyester trousers behaved only while damp.
You need the industrial aerosol, not a clothing pump. Ambersil 31561 at about £14.50 is the listing with 4.4 from 87 reviews and written texts. Follow the CRC sheet: extremely flammable (H222), spray from 23 to 30 cm, wait four to five minutes, and keep it off live equipment and off plasma, LED and LCD screens.
For clothes, BritishBasics 250 ml is the top pick: 4.1 from 545 amazon.co.uk reviews is the largest sample, at about £6.51 for 250 ml, and the same texts record marks and fade. Suds Up 250 ml is the best value at about £5.99, unscented, with United Kingdom origin and a much smaller sample of 4.0 from 9 reviews. For paper, textiles and dust, use the Ambersil 31561 listing that has 4.4 from 87 reviews, and follow the CRC sheet, including H222. None of these sprays is a wrist strap, a grounded mat or EN 1149 clothing.
Suds Up 250 ml anti-cling spray
Same 250 ml fill for 52p less, unscented and made in the United Kingdom, with a thinner sample of 4.0 from 9 reviews.
