Does the job well !
Staff Reviewer -
This product worked very well in restoring an older, somewhat worn and slipping, self-propelled lawn mower drive belt. There is no adjustment provided for tightening the aging drive belt.
Before using the conditioner, I first lightly deglazed the "V" surfaces of the belt with medium steel wool (emery or fine sandpaper should also do the job, before spraying several times (allowing each application to absorb into the belt).
The belt no longer slips and seems a lot more pliable.
My goal in using this product was to give added service life to an expensive, special order belt, that would have required an involved replacement procedure. If the belt lasts even another season or so, I would be very pleased.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
makes squeaks worse!
This product made a horribly imbarasing squeak about 100 times worse I have starter walking because it made it so much worse. Please avoid this at all coast.

Worked perfectly
Used this on a 1999 Nissan Maxima. I put new belts on this car about a year ago. The main belt has been squeaking on start-up on and off since. Tightening the belt would work but I was nervous about over-tightening. This car has had a very slow oil leak for years and I think the belt has been getting contaminated. This CRC Belt Conditioner worked perfectly. It made the belt tacky and completely eliminated the squeaking/chirping at startup. Also you get a lot of conditioner (7.5 oz) for a low price which is great. I have been working on cars for more than 20 years and feel good about this product.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Great if you know how to use it.
Not for mental [*] like the two guys that give bad review. I bet that they just press the spray and keeped spraying until the whole thing just get ultra wet.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Just makes it worse!

I was warned by the Advance auto employee that this stuff may make the belt noise worse... he was right! My belt churp became a constant squeal after applying this stuff!
