Help My F2 Sucks!

[OMGitsSolved]

Lots of people tell me "Oh my god the F2 is amazing!"
That it cuts corners amazingly and and it never pops.
Well, mine started out amazing and now it can barely cut corners and it pops
24/7!
If I were to loosen it I think it would pop more!
And I lubed it with silicone spray then I cleaned it out and used Lubix and it still
sucks. Any help?

Did you put the Lubix in the core?

Who are these people?
Maybe you used too much Lubix? or maybe the core is stripped, that could be your problem

Did you put the Lubix in the core?

What ever did we do before a lube came out after the cube.

The only problem I've had with my FII is the sticker quality (and 2 caps fell out when I dropped the cube on the ground).

How many solves per day / how many days have you had it? How often does it lock up? Are you sure it's not too loose? What cube are you comparing it to when you say it "barely cuts corners?"

bout 3 since it became so horrible.
About a few weeks.
A LOT.
Nope it would definitely cut corners better.
Believe it or not I'm comparing it to a Diansheng (that's how bad it is)

try the lube comes with the maru cube,it's really amazing and may help with your F2.careful,because the cube may be too smooth after use it.

 

[OMGitsSolved]

i wish i had maru lube

I thought this was clear, but apparently it wasn't. How many days/weeks/months have you had your FII? How many solves have you done per day, since you've had your cube? I mean before this problem started occuring. A lot is a very broad term. Every solve? Multiple times a solve? Are you sure it's not your turning style that's causing it to lock up? I love my GuHong, but I still lock up with it, and most of the time is is my fault. Making it too lose does not necessarily mean it'll cut corners better.

 

[OMGitsSolved]

It was a week and a half into having the FII the problems occured.And a four solve per day because I'd rather use my Guhong than that cube? I'm pretty sure it's not my turning style. And about the corners sorry I always thought loosening it did. Lesson learned

 

[JCub3r]

i would dissasemble the whole cube maybe things you can't see have broken or got caught. try replacing springs or screws,

So you have a GuHong, and an FII? If you are used to using your GuHong, that's why your FII feels like it has went downhill. I too am spoiled by my GuHong, and my FII doesn't feel like it used to. It felt fine until I got used to my GuHong (even when I used a GuHong/FII interchangeably for the first two weeks or so I had the GuHong). Now that I'm used to my GuHong, my FII doesn't feel as good as it used to, but I can still tell that it's better than my AV, my DiangSheng, my gf's storebought, etc.

I've found that the FII doesn't react well to silicon spray. It reacts well to maru lube. However, apparently the lubricant that many people use for the FII is this one: http://www.lightake.com/detail.do/sku._Professional_Magic_Cube_Lubricant_(420ml)-24271

Don't hold me to that. I just remember hearing about it in some thread on here.

Wash it out and relube
Turn less roughly?
Readjust the tensions

 

[cincyaviation]

Did the problems start occurring right after you lubed it?

 

[OMGitsSolved]

nope and i cleaned it out changed the screws and springs and now i even worse....
