I have some glycerine at home because I play around with sextants, and glycerine makes a good artificial horizon. I was thinking of trying glycerine with an Epson v750 that I just purchased. Unlike Kami, Prazio and Lumina, it is cheap (a litre is under $10), available from any decent drugstore (no shipping, etc.) and there are absolutely no issues regarding safety. Unlike mineral oil or baby oil, it is completley soluble in water, no detergent required.
I just did a search and came across this discussion: http://photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=00Hr2z
What I found interesting about that discussion is that one participant in particular, a fellow named Julio Fernandez, had no substantive criticism of glycerine. That's interesting, because he is one of these guys who recommends products in internet fora while neglecting to mention that he has an interest in selling the product, in this case Lumina.
Anyway, has anyone tried glycerine?
