Hey everyone.
Recently, I lubricated my cube with silicone. It's pretty nice, it takes a tad bit of force to get the side going, but when it does, it goes well.
Now, about a week later, one of my friends lubricated his cube with graphite powder. I'd never heard of this before, and have never heard ANY speedcubers mention it at all. (Apparently, it is found at hobby shops)
The point is, not is cube is SUPER loose. I hardly touched it and the side just moved like it wasn't there. Practically the only force required was to make sure that you didn't drop the cube. :lol:
So, if graphite powder is so much better than silicone, why doesn't anyone suggest it?
