Default Belt Question

greetings all,

strange question here. i need to locate some belt dressing-grip that comes in a solid stick form. anyone know of a place that actually sells it. i know that there are sprays but, don't want 'em and i know that the sprays have taken the place of the solids over the years. the stick form comes in various sizes and most resembles the size of a tube of caulk but of course, a solid consistancy. if anyone knows for sure of a place and can give me an address or e-mail contact or web site, it would be greatkly appreciated. thanks!

Why do you need belt dressing? They don't work very well on serp belts.

If it's making noise, there's something wrong (belt, tensioner, etc.)
