Hill -- the only one.

"The Hill compound works perfectly and lasts for years on properly fitted pegs. A bit expensive, but one tube will suffice for the rest of your life unless you use it up fixing all of your student's pegs. A warning: use other "off-brand" peg compounds at your own risk. They will often leave you worse off than when you started. Hill is the professional luthier's choice."

Tuning a violin

I had been using just one other kind of peg dope for too long, and consequently ordered and received a dependable Hill product that has worked very well. I also purchased some rubbing alcohol at a local drugstore to remove excess rosin from my strings on a regular basis. The combination has made it much easier to hear the perfect fifths needed to carefully tune and play a beautiful violin with pleasure. Both accessories have been very useful.
