Is anyone using LAST?

Has anyone used LAST (record preservative) and if so, what are your thoughts? I used it years ago, before I got out of vinyl, and don't remember having any problems. Since getting back into vinyl (about 3 years now) I've started using it again.
In Stereophile, a few issues ago, someone wrote Fremer and said LAST was messing up their LP's.

I've never had a problem with LAST record preservative messing up an LP, and I used to use it regularly with probably 2000 LPs treated over the years.

However, since upgrading my turntable/tonearm combination and switching to Disc Doctor and now Walker Audio Prelude cleaning solution, I've stopped using it. After cleaning with Prelude, if I add LAST I now hear a slight sonic signature from the LAST that is not objectionable, but that I'd just as soon not have. Still, I've never experienced LAST preservative "messing up" an LP.
