Cube noise help

[RichCuberBoy389]

Hey, so I've been maining the gan 11 m pro for a while, and it has started squeaking when I turn, and it does the same thing on my mgc 4x4 on one of the sides (there might also be spring noise but idk how to/really cant do anything abt that cuz i only have dnm 37). Does anyone know how I could remedy the squeaking on my cubes?

Edit: it actually does it on multiple sides on the mgc

Idk but I guess you could try changing the spring compression

lubing it would be worth a try

lubing it would be worth a try

Lubing the springs or screws with DNM-37, a water based lube would kill the cube ( I learned this the hard way). If you have a silicone lubricant like weight 1-5, try using that.

Springs are made of steel, an alloy that almost entirely is iron. Exposing steel to large amounts of oxygen (such as oxygen molecules in water) will encourage rusting. So use a weighted lube or just any lube that isn’t water or plant based, since that’s essentially a variant of water based lubricant.

Use silky on springs, works like a charm, at least for me. I think you can get some for $5 on the Cubicle, I prefer dropper lubes, but weight 5 will work too.
