Eqyss products are excellent for this problem. I use both the Premier shampoo and the Rehydrant spray for my cats. Both are also helpful in preventing and easing out matts, which is a common problem with Persians.
Another thing I use is Jerob Creme Rinse after the final bath. This too helps get out the last of the shampoo & makes combing after the bath easier. The creme rinse also helps ease out matts.
Armed you with a lot of info. What I would try first (after the fact) is the Rehydrant. Smells wonderful and gets rid of the static. Just spray it on, give your kitty a good massage to get it all through the coat & whalla! Problem solved. (Comb it through, of course)
If it isn't, start over with the Eqyss shampoo. Follow the directions (leave it on for a couple minutes). Do that once or twice. Make SURE you get all of the shampoo out! Follow with a white vinegar rinse - gets rid of excess shampoo, then the Jerob Creme rinse. Also leave on a couple minutes. Then, rinse, rinse, rinse, and when you think you're done, rinse some more.
Follow with the Eqyss rehydrant and blow the cat dry using a comb to quicken the process. (If s/he's not used to it at least do it a little bit!)
You will have a wonderfully clean cat with a soft, easy to manage coat. Periodic spraying of the rehydrant will take care of the static (if any - the cream rinse prevents that too).
Enjoy!

I would not rub a dryer sheet on the cat. Would you like to lick a dryer sheet? I think Ragdoll kitty has a good answer I would just dampen my hands with water and pet the cat occasionally that way.

rub some hand lotion into your hands (not all greasy, but normal amount) and pet him for awhile. It should improve it a bit. Do it a couple of times a day till his static is gone.

Are you using human shampoo? Use kitty shampoo (sold at pet stores) it contains conditioner that should eliminate the problem. Using kitty shampoo isn't as irritating as human shampoo, either. Don't wash him more than once a week.

Rub him down with a drier sheet, such as Bounce..It really works!
It helps to keep him tangle free, as well..and is a great flea repellent.

some stores sell dryer sheets that have no perfume or chemicals and that have static cling release. take one and rub him down it should work.

yes. pet it with a downy dryer sheet. It might even make the cat soft and fresh smelling.
