I use KVD L&L on all my non-braided lines. Seaguar InvisX is the most manageable FC I've ever used and probably doesn't need KVD Line and Lure, but it definitely won't hurt anything.

Yup, ya should! It'll limpin the stuff right up. I recommend giving it a good soaking the night before you go fishin. Any of it will work, but KVD Line and lure see, to be the most popular. I've also had good luck with Ardent line butter.

I use the KVD also, especially on my braids. Not so much on my mono lines. One thing I noticed that helps is to make a log cast with your reel and spray the conditioner on what line is left on the spool. Then after reeling in the cast, spray again.

A friend turned me on to some stuff called "Reel Magic". Comes in a spray can. I was really surprised at the difference in casting distance and accuracy. Got a can of my own now. A couple of spritzes every so often seems to do the job.

I use KVD L&L as well. I use it on all of my mono, copolymer, and fluorocarbon lines, and it softens the line and makes it easier and smoother to cast. It is much cheaper by the gallon though.

I've only used Braid Aid. Oddly enough, I've only used it on Mono. It does help with the memory on 17# line.
I do believe that's the only product Gander carries, but I'm not gonna swear to it
