Just showing my age. First time I ever used that trick, I borrowed the hair spray from my stepmom.

Hairspray is the classic option and lots of people use it. Haven't used it myself yet.

Pro-Grip recommends only rubbing alcohol for installing their grips and it's worked for me. I have a set of their grips on my 1980 K.

Biltwell recommends WD-40 and that worked great too -- though their grips are a special rubber so this is probably a bad idea for other brands.
