I bet it's similar to the cube lube that comes with DIYs on rubiks.com

Why does that cube have 2 yellow centers?

It looks like my silicone gel.

Haha, this is so funny. A fine example of how people tried to make money out of the cube craze.
That's almost giving away that that was the original purpose of the lube. Almost.

Same reason the guy has only 8 fingers and holds the cubes in his palms instead of his fingertips.
And they had the Arial font in 1982?! I thought computers back then had no GUI?

NO!!! The offer expired August 31st, 1982. I just missed it!! As for what it is, I agree with Rama. It looks like a paste of some sort.

I guess the alternative then was vaseline which worked pretty well, but left a mess inside the cube
