anti slip for turntable belt

Have you tried a safe product that can extend the life of a turntable belt, and help also the belt not to slip at departure of the platter ?

Even back to the days of the first AR turntable, their original instructions directed users to periodically wipe the belt with a damp cloth and apply talcum powder. VPI says the same thing. I seem to recall Oracle stating as much. Those are three tables that date from the 80s.
