    I have used Invisigrip but it really is the vinyl you find in the Home Dec dept.

    I just use rubber cement. It's clear, it's cheap, it's easy, and when I want to just roll your finger across it pressing hard and you can roll it off. Get it at any school supply area (Wal Mart, Target, etc

    I use TrueGrips--non-slip adhesive rings. Made by the The Grace Company and I bought at local sewing machine shop.

    I received a pack of the Tru-Grips when I bought a template set. They work pretty well. I also use the Creative Grid rulers.

    I also bought some skateboard tape, but found that they scratch my other rulers and templates when they rub against them.

    I use sandpaper dots that I make using a sheet of sandpaper that is sticky on one side and a paper hole punch.

    I have used clear nail polish and table salt. You will to renew from time-to-time, but it does work.

    I stray the back lightly with basting spray from the can and let it dry you can always take it off with fingernail polish remover I also do that to any template I am using it works great

    Grip strips is the only thing I use now. I had tried everything else and nothing ever seemed to work. They are great I use them on all my rulers, wouldn't be without them
