Best Way To Apply Lubix?

I've just watched this video:

But I was wondering if there was another way of applying Lubix, a way that would make your cube faster?
Thanks.

Just follow those instructions.

I've read on this forum of someone applying Lubix the every edge or corner, which is why I enquired.

May ask for a link?

That would likely be too much and actually slow the cube down.

I have no idea where it is, this was before I joined the forum, when I was just reading here.

Thanks, so I will just apply as instructed in the video.
Also, question, when it says to apply to the six point on the cube, should I pull the centre piece slightly so the Lubix can go on the screw?

Pull the center cubie slightly away from the nylon core, and apply 1 dab (1/50th ml) to where the center cubie piece and the core meet. Repeat this step for all 6 points on the core

What that says

Yes, it works on leverage and friction. Applying there is the main it works so well.

Okay, thanks everyone!

Hi, is it possible to lube a 5x5 and a 4x4 with Lubix?
I assume it's the same process?
I saw a video on Youtube:

But it's a V Cube and it looks like he's put in too much lube.
I have an Eastsheen 5x5, where am I supposed to apply the lube for this?

This is the perfect way of lubing a guhong with Lubix http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meyd40121Oo&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

 

[dabest2500]

That question has already been answered.
As an update, I have lubed my Eastsheen with Lubix now.
I tried to loosen the tensions, but that just makes is so loose that half the cube fell apart.

I've found that light weight (25-30wt) shock oil works much better for all ESs and for V-5s. But only on looser ones, regular silicon spray is much better for these cubes if they have not been broken in yet.
