I lubed my cube but now it's all slippery

[non847]

the luberication was successfull but now the faces of the cube are also lubricated and they are so slippery i don't have a firm hold of the cube.

what do i do?
please help

Keep using the cube? Unless you lubed with vaseline... in which case, just wash out your cube and lube with something other then vaseline.

no. silicone spray. but still it'l be few days befor i'l be able to preform algs faster.
isn't ther any way to wipe of the silicone efficienly?

 

[Chapuunka]

Wipe it on a cloth and don't use so much next time. Also make sure it's all getting inside the cube.

just wait a day and the lube should dry off

THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LUBE IT.

On another note, I just washed my car and now it's all shiny! I'm confused... ?

How much lube did you use?

 

[cuberkid10]

The question is.. what did you lube it with?

Just keep solving it. It should slow down and break in more over time.

... Read the thread.

Yea, keep using the cube or wipe it off with a towel.

I use baby wipes and then a dry towel.

A microfiber car towel works pretty well. If you don't have one, just keep cubing. As you handle it, your fingers will rub the excess lube off in a day or two. Just remember to wash your hands before you eat anything.

Is this guy serious?

He lubed the cube from inside and probaly got some on the outside by misstake...

Thread answer: When I screw up with my CRC, I just use soap (soft soap?) so get it off. Works perfectly for me.

I'd just bein' a lickin' it clean.

 

[ElectricDoodie]

OP, why don't you just clean/wipe it...?

lol I panicked too the first time the exterior became slippery (with white lithium). Like others said, use a towel and keep using it.
