Gruv Glide and CD's

Does anybody have any experience with using "Grov Glide" on Cd's. I found the stuff while I was purusing elusive discs web site. They mention that it is good for cleaning CD's and also performs a anti-static function. They state one application is good for a period of time and that it is stereophile recommended.

Thanks, Chuck

My understanding of Grove Glide is that is is a lubricant for vinyl. This is why I asked the question about using it on Cd's. I have a concern about using a lubricant, dry or not, on the data side of a CD. But, who knows, maybe I am missing something here so I thought I would ask. Thanks for your responses.

I wouldnt use a lubricant on CD's.Nothing touches the CD that has to be lubricated.Might make a mess in there also over time.

I don't see how any coating will improve readability. Unless it helps laser better see differences in reflectivity.

Click you heels together three times and say, "I want to go home to vinyland". Seriously, Gruv Glide is superb in limiting static electricity. I would think that you would want to apply "whatever anti-static product" on the label side only. No science in this opinion. Just reasoning. And worth what you paid for it.
