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

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.
Dear Chuck,

I've used Gruv Glide faithfully on all of my records since 1981, with great results.

After reading your post I tried it on my CD's. I have a few that are duplicates. I treated one, played them both back and compared. The treated one did sound a tad better. What really improved was the quality "SHEEN" of the surface. I can't get any dirt or dust to stay on the CD surface, (must be the antistatic effect)

I'll keep experimenting and I will keep you posted.

I called Elusive Disc, and Music Direct. Both state it's excellent on CD's as well as records, therefore it should be perfectly safe.
I also agree with Bob bundus and lugnut. They are right on the money, as usual.
