Welcome to the AB Forum

Can anyone provide a recipe for a surfactant to apply to synthetic fiels to release static build up?

I din't know turf has static build up issues. How interesting. We have a long history with ESD floors in the tech world but never thought of it for turf. I can see linebackers shuffling along to build up a charge to litteraly shock the other team. hah

Try using a product like X-99 Super Surfactant. 1 to 2 pints per 100 gals water. Apply minimum of 1 gallon of solution per 1000 square feet of turf. I would start at 1 pint per 100 gals water and see what happens. You can go up to 2 pints if needed. Be careful not to overapply or the surface may become slippery. Good coverage is important.

Liquid fabric softener will work too. Again, don't overapply. Most times a good rain event will eliminate static.

We do synthetic turf maintenance work, www.psfs.us, and have not found static to be a real concern. Not much of a build up and what little there is seems to go away quickly.

Hope this helps.
