yeah that's about all you can do at this stage before considering any more drastic measures like a beer can shim. Clean post and inside of frame super thoroughly and then some sort of grip paste; Park Tool anti-seize compound has worked well for me in the past with slipping seatposts.

BBB postfix?

I don't know your seat post size requirements, but these are the best I've ever found. Put them in everything now and never had a post slip. The hope ones are garbage.

Still struggling with a bit of a slipping seatpost. Less slipping now with the Brother/Superstar one than with the Hope clamp but it’s definitely still creeping down and it never used too, even with the Hope clamp. Should I be worried?
Think I’ll try properly degreasing the inside of the tube as much as possible then go back in with carbon grip paste and tighten er up? Is that smart? Anyone have any ideas?
