Lubrication Thread

I tried all sorts of disgusting stuff but nothing beats my diff oil CRC mix...

Your cube is so loose you could have sand inside there and it wouldn't slow down :P

I just tried silicone grease, but it's pretty heavy stuff. Besides that I'm using maru lube, they seem to work ok together. Grease works nicely with springs and screws.
Gonna try shock oil as soon I get to buy some.
I used to use crc silicone spray, but stopped using that with guhong and zhanchi as they are pretty fragile cubes.
I even tried some teflon spray thingy, but it was messy and didn't last too long in use.

Hello Everybody...I tried mixing 30K Wt Traxxas Diff Oil and a bit of CRC in a small container, and put it on my Stickerless Zhanchi. I ruined my other Stickerless Zhanchi using pure CRC Silicone Spray, So I was brave to try this!! Mix about 1/6 of a cap-ful of Traxxas Lube with about a one second spray of CRC Silicone Spray and mix it with a q-tip, let it sit for 30 seconds and the apply to edge of cube. Even put it on the core if you want. I tried it and it works GREAT!! I hope you enjoy your Awesome Zhanchi.

I might have to try this, but I have so many kinds of lube already.

I think 5bld also does something similar with his guhong

Funny, I actually just did this. I lubed it then sprayed the CRC in and it was amazing

[nuclearbigdaddy]

I mixed them together because spraying CRC in a stickerless cube is NOT A GOOD IDEA! LOL!!+

I lubricated my GuHong sticker less with shampoo. -_-

It works amazing though! It glides amazingly, and is silent as a stone, which is good for playing it in school.

i heard all of the asian cubers use D39 to lube their cubes and after a few solves they drop in some maru lube. they say its the best lube you can get! my question is : is there anyone who already tried this before? is it good(compare to other lubes like lubix, silicube)?
and: can i bring any kind of lubricant from china to canada? (im going to china soon and ill buy a LOT of stuff including lubricants, just dont know if i can bring it to canada?) if someone can answer me that will be great!

there is maru and I think D39, also there is lube that is similar to maru. I doubt it is better than lubix or shock oil, but you can try it.
