Gruve Glide

I would advise against trying any "generic" product, for the sake of saving a few dollars. Your generic could contain products which may be, without your knowledge, harmful to your records.

Why risk it when you are only talking pennies per application?

Hi, Is the 1980's product called Sound Guard remembered by anyone? I have some NOS bottles of it which I never used, and am wondering if anyone has ever tried it back when it was a current product?

Sound Guard gum up the stylus,that was a big problem with that product.

Gruve Glide has done wonders for my LP's for over ten years now. As the above posts say, the static loss is worth the money alone, but after cleanig with VPI and then applying Gruve Glide I always notice a slight reduction in background noise as well.
BTW there actually was a slight revision of the product about eight or nine years ago.( Not sure what was changed) It was originally called Gruve Glide and now the newer version is Gruve Glide 11.
The newer version is what I have been using primarily, and it is a little better than the original IMHO.

After using Gruve Glide does anyone notice a residue on their stylus?
