How do you all resticker your cubes?

[antoineccantin]

This isn't really about REstickering, but when I was taking the stickers off of one of my 3x3s, I found that peeling them off with my fingers actually leaves barely any residue, but when I try to take them off with one of those plastic sticker removal things, it left a ton more on. I don't know if I just had some weird stickers or anything, but that's what I found.

It depends on the sticker. In the FII stickers, it woks a lot better to peel them, but on my LanLan 2x2 stickers it worked better with the "plastic sticker removal thing".

i peel the sticker of the sheet, put it on an xacto knife, and carefully center it on the cube.

This is exactly what I do too.for some reason using the xacto knife makes the stickers much easier to center on the cubie.but before that I use the plastic razor to get a little less then half the sticker up. Just enough to get a good grip on it with my fingers because when you peel the, off with your fingers you get less sticker residue.

Also I have a question I have like the perfect amount of lubix in my zhanchi I was wondering if I use goo gone would that mess up the lubix if some gets inside the cube. Which probably wouldn't happen but I wanna know just incase.

When I replaced the stickers on my Guhong, I must've gotten Goo Gone in the cube, because I didn't take to cube apart, but the cube felt different, stiffer. After a good cleaning and re-lubing, it was good as new. But if you don't want to mess up the "perfect" amount of Lubix you have, I would suggest wiping off each cubie individually and carefully. When I messed up my Guhong with the Goo Gone I just sprayed it over the whole cube. (Definitely not my brightest idea )

I just put them on one by one.

Stickering a teraminx is a pain in the ass XD.

I'm just curious, does anyone use goo-gone anymore to get rid of the sticky residue after you take off a sticker?

I've never used something like Goo-Gone before. I think products like that are unnecessary. I just scrub the pieces with a damp scourer, dry them with a towel, reassemble the cube and sticker away!

I put them on one by one, too. Unfortunately, I'll be doing that to my 6x6 when it comes in along with my CubeSmith stickers...

I like to put my stickers on one-by-one, with a nice razor blade/utility knife, or if you have one, those craft/hobby knives (the real X-Acto knives). I take stickers off the little sheet very gently, apply a corner to my razor blade, and then put the opposing corner down first on a cube, then I just smooth it out and I center it as much as possible.

This is the results of living as a perfectionist. Sigh.

I've used Goo-Gone, but it's a pain in the butt to completely get it off, so I try to just scrape away the residue left by the stickers,wth a knife or something.
