Theory is that you apply a static (ground strap) to a vehicle chasis that makes contact with the ground. Thus discharging static as it is built up while driving. Supposed to remove fire hazzard while filling vehicle with fuel. Also supposed to help keep vehicle cleaner by not attracting dust and dirt. Same theory as these new electronic home air cleaners.
