Jig-A-Loo in an Eastsheen 4x4? Yes or No?

[ADKLco]

I need some advice, do you think I should put Jig-A-Loo in my Eastsheen 4x4?
I tried lossening it by a 16th of a turn but it was still to loose.

What do you think I should do?

Jig-A-Loo made my Eastsheen 5x5 so loose you could take it apart and reassenble it very easily without unscewing any screws.

I'm just wondering if it will be diferent with the 4x4 cause it made my ES 2x2 very good.

I had this same problem myself. I decided to do it, and it didn't hurt me at all.

is normal too tight? and i think jiga-loo works as a universal lubricate, it can lube any size cube that is plastic.

Well, if your having problems with it being to loose, you don't want to loosen it, right?

Anyway,
I would NOT recommend doing this.
I've had bad experiences with Eastsheens+Jig-A-Loo.

Eastsheen+Jig-A-Loo=The Cube Literally Fell Apart.

isnt jiga-loo only a lubricant? why would the cube be looser (or whatever it is causing it to fall apart) because of a lubricant?

 

[CitricAcid]

Jig-A-Loo contains Acetone.
A plastic solvent.
It eats plastic if left in a concentrated pool.
Spreading it throughout a cube melts a microscopic layer of plastic.

But, considering the mechanism of a ES 4x4, it traps Jig-A-Loo in a concentrated pool.
(Found from experience)

Which results in a high amount of plastic loss.

Use CRC.
BUT DON'T SCREW AROUND (as in loosen) THE SCREWS.

Yeah, I noticed that.

IDK, just from experience,
it's ruined my ES cubes.

DO NOT loosen the screws. That makes mine suck balls. Just saying.

ask eric limeback about Jig-A-Loo with 4x4x4s.

Get a QJ, I wouldn't reccommend lubing an Eastsheen with Jigaloo.

Okay, Thanks to all of you!

I heard from someone (I think it was Cubes=Life) that Silicone will crack the core of an Eastsheen. Evidence:
