I don't know if anyone is even interested in this anymore, but do you guys want me to attempt to branch out my boron treatment business? Is this something the community still wants? I can continue to experiment for the community, but I won't waste my time if this will just blow over as another boring topic. I think i'm currently selling boron cubes at the cheapest price, as the cubes are only 10 dollars more than the normal cube. They are relatively easy to make too. My next thought was if a Boron XS would be any good, and thats the next cube I plan on doing. Thank you guys for your input.

EDIT: is there a specific cube you guys want me to explore more?

PS. If you don't know what boron treatment is, it is taking normal cube plastic and making it softer on the molecular level. Just look on Chris Tran's channel
 
Do you have any videos or pictures of the boron treated cubes? This is the first I've heard of someone other than the cubicle doing this.

The point of Boron Treating Cubes is to get into its molecular structure and break plastic rigidity bonds to make the actual plastic softer. Its not a coating or a lubricant, its literally the plastic. The effect is most prominent on older Moyu Cubes like the GTS2 and all GAN cubes. The Qiyi plastic doesn't react as well but the effect is still there. If you've ever heard of how Old Plastic Dayan cubes are softer, it's basically reproducing old Dayan Plastic onto newer cubes.

If you can make a 2x2 feel like an op Dayan I would pay for it
 
Ill be doing a GAN XS later today. Ill keep you guys updated on the results.
 
Can you make a video or something about the process?
 
Hmm, I can put together some short clips of the process, and the results of the cube. But id rather focus on not messing up the cube than focus on the video. Hope you understand

depending on the price and my mood. and if you post a video just doing some turns. I've bought many cubes recently so I need to slow down a bit.

Its really hard to post a video doing turns, because I only make the cubes after an order. Also, any of you looking at this, Dayan 2x2s are 26.99
