Ohhhhh, I knew someone would comment on the orientation of my Sq-1 stickers, yet forgot to make a note about it.

Changed them around so that my logo can legally be on the white side, also just generally like it this way. My very first Square-1 had a weird sticker scheme too, so it's not like I've ever been sentimental towards how where the colours are "officialy".

(Besides, I don't care much about Sq-1 anyway lol)

I'm talking about what was sticking out under the top layer pieces of the orange side.

Ooooohhh, okay. That's just a piece of cardboard. Which I wedge in there to stop accidental turns, like they do in comps. I constantly keep it in there just so it doesn't get lost, or accidentally thrown away.

Probably should've taken it out before taking pics, now that I think about it.

best sticker?

ok moyu stickers are the best I've seen and used, but I can't find any on the Web. what's the next best stickers that are as tough as moyu stocks? because they don't chip. knowing what moyu stickers are made of would help.

most cube stickers are vinyl, so thats why they dont chip. Moyu stickers arent particularly good though. they are better than some other brands like dayan and shengshou because the shades are half decent and they are durable, bu they twist around and the orange is trash. get stickers from thecubicle.us

buy an unstickered guanlong and use the stickers on another cube.

That's not true. I have stickers on my Weisu from thecubicle and I've done like about 1000 solves with those stickers and only a few chips here and there.

I would say cubicle stickers, because you can get good shades. If you really want moyu stickers, get an unstickered guanlong.

are you sure they are placed well? Are your fingernails cut? Is your turning style extremely inaccurate? Are you using the stickers that came on the guanlong?

yes I'm OCD about stickers. and I play guitar so I need my nails as short as possible, and for cubing as well. I don't own a guanlong never tried one either. I'm getting just for the stickers which hopefully will last as long as the ones in my weilong.
my turning is rough fast which is would explain the easy chips that's why I'm looking for stickers as tough moyu ones they won't chip. I don't like tiles they feel weird.

flourecent shades from the cubicle don't chip very easily. I like cubicle stickers because the orange isn't repulsive and I don't like fluorescent yellow. albeit you would probably be driven insane more by the fact that my stickers aren't well placed.

The corners would definitely fit but the edges may need slight trimming

the fluorescent shades (fluorescent pink, red, orange, yellow, green and Ocean blue) are made of different material than the others. however In order to have all sides not chip you must replace white with fluoro pink. I'm not sure if metallic shades (silver, gold and chrome) are made of tougher material though.

For all my Moyu cubes, I get my stickers from thecubicle.us. For my color scheme, I use Yellow, Red, White, Fluro Green, Fluro Bright Orange, and Deep Blue (resembles Dayan/SS Normal Blue, slightly lighter than cubicle's normal Blue).

On all of my cubes (2 thru 7), the fluro stickers are still pristine, red yellow and white are decent... but on each and every one of my mains, the Deep Blue is chipping pretty badly.

I've been thinking lately that Deep Blue is kinda dark anyway. Does anyone use a slightly lighter shade of Blue that doesn't have the same issues with chipping that Deep Blue has?

"Ocean blue" is NOT made of the same vinyl as the other 6 fluorshades, it's just as thin as the other normal shades. (The F shades are: F Red, F Yellow, F Green, F Pink, F Orange & F bright Orange.)
