Gruve Glide


Does anybody know exactly what this stuff is made of ? I just picked up a Vpi HW16.5 machine and a can of the Gruve Glide. This has shown some amazing results to my old collection. But the Gruv Glide smells like silicone. I was wondering if there was a generic product that would be less than $26 a can.

Yeah, I have to agree with you. It is definatly a dry lubricant. Hey, the stuff works great. Don't get me wrong, I think it's worth twice what it costs. But if I knew what it was, I wouldn't mind saving a buck or two. My huffing days are long gone :-) Sometimes though I wonder what a nice joint would do to my soundstage!!
Yeah, I wish I could. My job has drug testing so I found long ago that my job was more important. Damn it!!
Actually the gruv glide removes any static. So if anything does become attached to the album, a quick little puff blows it right off. There is definitly less groove noise after using the gruv glide. I believe it is like a $1000 upgrade to your phono pre or cartridge. When I went from the Goldring Eroica to the Grado reference Sonata. It was ahuge jump up. After adding gruv glide, it is almost as big a jump. Grooves are dead quiet.
