bog standard stickers are made of paper and the colours can fade (Type F2 3x3 have notoriously bad paper stickers). PVC ones are super thin plastic and are longer lasting.

EDIT: Actually, looking up Lightake, it appears the 'pvc' one actually has tiles. That could be a personal preference thing. I've never used a tiled cube.

for 4x4 cube reduction method,what way do most speedcubers use for dedges?

 

[souljahsu]

pair up 2 edges by doing a 2 layer turn, take the paired-up edge out and replace it with a bad edge that isn't paired up yet.
and for the last 2 edges there are algs.

this.
I use the one he doesn't recommend though.
try both and choose the one that is best for you.

what is the best lube for a latch cube?

I want to start with the best, since I don't think I can take it apart to clean it.

 

[vcuber13]

shock oil would probably be best since you wont really be speedsoving it and it will make it really smooth

Rofl ryan 1:34 or something:

"Is my Guhong savable?" lol'd. you know its not, that thing is terribad. At least my haiyan isnt too bad.

My question: Is there a way I can make my haiyan feel almost as good as new? Mine is still pretty decent, but it just doesnt feel as good as it did when i first got it. Advice is appreciated

Since your core is the only thing that is super bad, perhaps you could just replace that?

how do you clean the core of a 3x3? i know how to clean the peices /core with just a paper towel but i want the core completely cleaned (a paper towel wont get the gunk out that's on there completely probably)

Does a lanlan pop more than a ghoshand on the same tension? (not lubed)

 

[oprah62]

Best lube for lingyun, dayan 4x4, and alpha feng v?
I have access to CRC, jigaloo, maru lube, and lubix, and shock oil of various weights.

I try making 2 dedges at once, it's hard to explain how *not Dd R F' U R' F Dd'* but I'm sure there's a vid on it somewhere.
