In some cases it can, my painter mentioned this in fear of attracting to much dust particles,,, there is a method that exists of grounding the car during painting, in my case he did not do anything special because I was wet sanding and polishing afterwards.

some people used to drop a chain over the axle and let it hang on the ground i don;t know if this is an old wifes tail or it really works or not but why not go for it it doesn;t cost anything ,it might even help

Painter who did mine used a chain, said he didn't want to take a chance on blowing up his booth.
Very good way to ground the car.

Definatly use the chain and I'd even add a bit of water around where the chain meets the floor for more insurance of a ground.
I'm not sure though how well that would work on fiberglass in getting the static at bay.
Curious to see what other suggestions are going to be made on this post.
