Cleaning your puzzle

Hi, I have a rubik 3x3, rubik 4x4 and a vcube5 lubed with Du Pont Teflon Silicone. I know this is not the best but i live in Argentina, South America and its imposible to get Jigaloo o CRC.

Now, I order some bottles of Maru Lube and I want to take away the silicone in the cube but this lubricant is water resistant. Can someone help me with this?

did you try hot water?

water resistant =/= unable to be removed by water. It's just more resistant to being removed then by...I don't know, the mucus from a young bull.

Yes.
So it would be better not to go against the grain, and use something it's not resistant to, wouldn't it?
 
Isopropyl alcohol on a cloth or cotton wool, cleans well and doesn't leave any residue behind.
 
Why can't he get a proper answer?

I don't think bogroll or banana peels will work

Why don't YOU offer one then?

My suggestion would be use it and use it and use it, untill the lube has worn out.

why don't I? because I don't have a solution, but i'm curious as to what it is

Well okay then. Admittedly banana peels *might* not work, but
What's wrong with bogroll? Cleans my lube up well enough.

Oops, I just stupidly thought that bogroll was something dumb, without knowning what it was :fp http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bog%20roll
