Rubbing/isopropyl alcohol, Qtips and an old sock.

I'm thinking about buying cubesmith stickers for 2x2 3x3 4x4 5x5 7x7. How long do they last on each of these cubes( quite heavy usage) and how many sets should I buy for each to last like 1 year?

I've been using the same Cubesmith stickers(on my Zhanchi Silk) for two years with very heavy use.

Just wondering what people think of this scheme:

The next order I place needs to be bulk to get free shipping, so before I choose the shades for every cube I own, I want to make sure it's exactly right for me.

Not sure how it looks in reality, but the light orange and red look awfully close.

I was worried about that too, but actually the plain orange and plain red look really close in the picture, so I'm thinking light orange will be quite different.

This may have been asked before, but I'd like to know which shades from which shops have the closest resemblance to the shades on a Rubik's brand.

It depends on what cube you are looking for stickers for but these are the closet shades I believe: http://thecubicle.us/standard-57mm-p-135.html

Anyone know what the shades that are on the Mefferts Tetrahedron 4 sided puzzles?

Stickers that will take the heat?

One of my cubes sat in the truck got hot and now the stickers are peeling.
I would like to be able to put my cubes in the truck.

Which after market stickers will put up with heat/cold and general abuse best?

 

[Antonie faz fan]

use black cubes and darker stickers.

If you must leave your cube in your truck, you should also consider getting a stickerless cube.

I live in Texas. I don't ever leave any toy-grade plastic in the car during the daytime. I have a friend who had an entire bottle of vodka in his trunk evaporate in one afternoon.

I'd recommend you go with lighter colored cubes and lighter colored stickers, they absorb less heat and are less likely to affect the adhesive as a result. I don't think you need to worry about cubes and stickers holding up against cold extremes, just hot. If it's cold enough to actually affect a cube, you probably wouldn't want to be out anyway.

For some reason, a couple of the stickers on my Aosu are peeling, it's just the the glue that's the problem, not the sticker, is there any way to remedy this problem? They stay on, but occasionally I'll catch a fingernail on them or I'll feeling them slide under my finger.

Get new stickers for it.

I have a partial red green color blindness, so I can easily tell between orange and red because red looks greyish. HAHA
What stickers are better in terms of durablity and choice? Cubicle or Cubesmith? I want half brights with bright blue(JRCuber's shades).Does, the cubicle or cubesmith offer custom logos? I want some.

Glowing Rubik's Cube Stickers?

I am very curious to know whether there is any rubik's cube available whose stickers glow in dark? or are there any special glowing stickers for the cube?
If yes the please mention the name of the cube or the stickers.
Thank You.

50mm Custom, Textured Stickers?

I've searched and searched, but I can't seem to find a site where you can choose the color of textured 14mm stickers. I am trying to find some for my FangShi 54.6, and I've been told to go for 50mm stickers to retain the effect of the f/s.

I really like the colors that http://thecubicle.us's customs have to offer.

The only thing I worry about is the light yellow/ fluro orange. I think fluro orange and fluro yellow work because the fluro yellow is pushed a bit toward green. It's not a huge problem, but it's why I went light orange (and regular red) instead of fluro orange. Here's mine:
