Fanning powder seems to work best for me

Fanning powder really helps.
As well as, having a playing card deck clip and beware of hot and wet environments are crucial as well. |

Also, consider picking up this fine Ebook as it contains a wealth of money saving options that have been researched and most that I have used from the book, I did direct comparisons with the actual products.

He claims it is superior to fanning powder, at that price it should be. I have also been told that a superior product can be bought at manacure supply houses, but he doesn't know the name, help appreciated.

It is available on Amazon for as little as $9.62. Use just a pinch in a bag. Apparently it is hazardous. Don't breathe it and wash hands after using.

An old-school solution is to draw Xs on the backs of cards with a bar of Cashmere Bouquet soap. Cut off a corner of the bar, to get more surface area to draw with. I use this stuff on the smooth sides of an ID, to rejuvenate the deck. It can be used to extend the life of a regular deck, too - even packet tricks.
