I would not use ANY aerosol silicone. They all contain very strong petroleum based solvents that can potentially weld your cube together. Try to find some brand of silicone oil that does not contain petrochemicals. And don't use petroleum jelly(vaseline) the name says it all.

@61churchill

Yes, I've noticed it can fuse the cube together. But the reason why is because it actually melts the surface of the plastic. But if you're quick to work in the lubricant, it'll smooth out the soft plastic. Once it all hardens, the cube turns much better.

hey which one is better vasaline or lubix lube?

[CuberExtreme]

@MeMyselfAndPi i use Jig-A-Loo, it makes my cube turn much better. i used it on my 4x4x4 and if i hit the top layer it turns three times. i find Jig-A-Loo is much better than CRC.

i tried selfsuscribing and i couldn't either, damn it, that's weird :/

[MrStickmanSteve]

Margarine works good too

@5durdur Racist lol i was just stating that the color scheme IS ACTUALLY a color scheme just not the one he is used to.

@WhatDoYouThink90 I'm pretty sure Japanese = wrong and American = right in most cases

[WhatDoYouThink90]

At the beginning of the video the color scheme isn't "wrong". It's the japanese color scheme as opposed to the american color scheme that most of us use. But it is in no way wrong

@DJKutler24 Because a new cube will be just as bad unless you lube it -.-' and with your prices, that would be a total of 8-10$. I'm pretty sure that's more than 6-7$, and definitely a lot more than 2-3. Do you get the point? Also, I'm not a virgin, girls actually like guys that can use their brain :)

Who even uses original rubik cubes any more ?

[iReviewCubes]

Can you wipe out the CRC just like the vaseline?
