I Know Nothing About Lube

[Pixilized]

Hey, I’m just curious as to what lube I should get. (Also what all those silly lubing terms mean). I got a MoYu WRM v10 for Christmas, and it’s amazing. The thing is, the factory lube is all worn out by now, and I’m curious as to what lube I should get. My budget is pretty low, so I’d like it to be cheap-ish, and long lasting if possible. I fully expect to be purchasing different lube types for different parts of the cube. What I really want is to make the cube feel smoother. It turns really fast, but somehow, despite being faster than out of the box now, it feels LESS smooth, which I don’t quite understand… being too fast isn’t a problem, as I can just adjust the tension once lube is applied. Also, I have no idea what else could be improved about it, but I’m sure there’s something, another part of the cube, that could use a different lube. Thanks in advance!

umm What do you mean by a "low budget" Could you state out your budget? Also do you prefer cubicle lubes or SCS lubes?
SCS: martian, stardust, lunar, maybe a nebula (Or if you want every lube but small amounts you could do cosmic lube sampler, this allows you to try them)
Cubicle: dnm37, mystic, Dignitas, maybe gravitas if you have the budget, weight 5, maybe silk if you want.

If you have questions, feel free to ask me!

I use SCS more often, and by “low budget” I mean “as cheap as feasibly possible (while still being decent quality)”

Lubest XMT10 is exactly what you are looking for (smooth, fast, can slow if adding a lot). I highly highly recommend this, as it’s good for basically all puzzles

Maybe try the cosmic lube sampler

you should get weight 5 and dnm-37 from thecubicle, also angstrom (I think both are good) if you want
