High Viscosity Differential Oil Thread

AFAIK, sticker vault always stock Maru Lubes.

I'll give them a call tomorrow, sent them a text but didn't get a reply. CMM only does pre-orders tho btw sir have you tried the PCS lubes? And do you know where we can get the luer lock syringes with that dispensing tip thingie? I sort of want to buy the PCS lube just for it's syringe xD

I once had one, applied it to all my old puzzle cores, it works great on dayan pieces when applied to the pieces, but it makes almost all moyu puzzles sluggish even with a small amount applied to pieces.

BTW, is it just me or moyu puzzles are sluggish when lubed with diff oil on pieces? i just drop a small amount of weight 600 on my aolong and it made it extremely sluggish.
600 CST viscosity is almost vegetable oil viscosity yet it still made my cube slow.

Just got my aolong today YAY! now waiting for my lubes to get here. hmm well i gave up on pcs and just opted to buy lubes from cubicle xD

ps. I goy my aolong from cubezz and paid for the DHL express shipping. it got here after 3 days so yea that was fast, the customs tax that i had to pay when dhl called ruined it for me tho

Can Vitress b used in lubing the core? If not,which alternative can b used? (Khit pangalan ng tindahan ng may silicon oil ok lng)

sir Audiophile said the thing is like Maru lube, I'm guessing he meant it's runny, if that's the case then I'll say no since you want a thick Lube on the core so you don't have to keep reapplying

have you tried calling pinoycubeshop? they might still have some high viscosity lubes left, but the only way to know is to call them or go to their shop personally

edit: Btw I've done around 350~ solves on my aolong without messing with it, is it okay if i tighten it a bit without lubing? My lubes seem to be taking a long time getting here xD

 

[xarfax1105]

Damn I forgot to ask here, has anyone tried the weight 5 lubes from cubicle? How does it compare to the 50k Traxxas?

I use shock oil to lube my cores and it's near water consistency

My 50k is lasting me 3 years and counting (still haven't even used half of it).

Same here. I got mine in 2010 or 2009, and I haven't even used half of it.
I have 5 3x3s that I lube, and it's still lasting such a long time.

do you use it on just the core? or do you lube pieces as well? I'm trying to figure out what i need to lube on the corner pieces of my aolong since apparently the stem-like thingie makes contact with the other pieces of the cube, but the lubing vid that i saw only lubed the corner piece itself

I used it on the core, and a strip all the way down one side of one edge piece on my Aolong. Don't do the corner stem or it gets way too gummy.
