Sorry, but what do the Bounce sheets do?
Probably nothing useful. They serve the purpose when inserted in a
dryer the Downey does in the washer, chemically treating fabric so as
to reduce static electricity. In a vehical, there would be little
effect.
They do the same thing as diluted Downey from a spray bottle. When I'm
carrying static-sensitive things, I take a couple sheets out and rub down
the carpet, seats, and plastic panels with them. Actually works fairly
well (and I read somewhere that they repel mosquitos too).
