I don't like aplicatikn tape reason: lets say 1 sticker is messed up and you have a comp? youre screwed

 

[Louie]

Haha Cool Guy! I agree with Antonie, application tape scares me. I haven't tried it because if I'm a little off I'd rather it be one sticker than all nine. I'd probably make an exception for the 10x10 though!!! :-D

 

[a cool guy]

Hehe yeah, application tape isn't a magical solution to stickering at all, and it is a matter of personal preference. I know when I was stickering the 10x10 with application tape, my hands were all sweaty because I knew that one mistake could ruin the entire side of stickers. There's pros and cons on either side, and I will hopefully be making a guide or article soon on what exactly the pros and cons are for application tape.

Mini MoYu WeiLong V2 (54.5mm) is now available at TheCubicle.us! Check it out here:

Would 57 mm weilong stickers fit a shengshou aurora or a mini weilong (v2)?

For ShengShou Aurora, we would recommend FangShi 57mm stickers. For more sticker recommendations, check out this link: http://thecubicle.us/sticker-guide-a-9.html

57mm MoYu stickers most likely won't fit the Mini WeiLong very well. It might fit, but there will be practically no plastic showing. We will be creating a custom set for the Mini WeiLong very soon (by the weekend!), so be sure to check those out soon

My problem with the application tape is that it just doesn't stick very well and is really hard to get all the stickers off the sheet onto the transfer tape. I know that you have previously discussed this and say that you just need to press really hard, but I just did a 5x5 and it was pretty frustrating. I feel that it could be a little bit stickier without causing problems transfering to the cube. A video or guide would be helpful if there is some tip you could provide for removing the stickers from the original sheet onto the transfer tape. Just my 2 cents.

I once devised a rig constructed entirely out of Legos that would slowly descend a loaded and leveled piece of application tape onto a big cube. My hands were always too shaky, so I took my hands out of the equation. Alas, I had to tear it down to then create my camera tripod.

I have a question for Canadians that have ordered from thecubicle.us. Have you ever been charged for delivery? I am wondering because my package should be coming in a few days, and I want to be prepared.

Still no love for Gans stickers? ;(

Well I have an extra set of 57mm weilong stickers, so would it be a disaster to put them on the aurora?

Thanks for the feedback -- we totally understand the frustrations. We will be getting a video of application tape usage up very soon. Actually, I've just been lazy with it but now that you brought it up, I'll try to get it up by tonight and post it here.

At least from our experience, customs and duties should not be charged unless the value of the order exceeds a certain amount, which is usually pretty high. There should be no extra fee to have the package delivered to your door/mailbox if that is how the mail is usually delivered.

Afraid not :\ I recommend 55mm - DaYan fitted for now -- it is a pretty good fit, and with other stickers for us to make, we may not be getting to the Gans III soon. We will be designing 54.5mm MoYu and AoSu stickers this weekend, and maybe ShengShou Megaminx.

Nah, it wouldn't be a disaster. If you aren't picky about the coverage, 57mm WeiLong stickers should work just fine.

If you are thinking of getting the stickers from the cubicle then you should watch this video.

Thanks for the in-depth review of Cubicle Stickers! Glad that you mentioned the new custom color scheme picker feature -- it was just released recently, and we think it will be great for saving time when picking stickers. Also, thanks for the feedback on the MF8 Set grey -- I'll definitely look into adding a darker grey to make the contrast better.

Again, we appreciate your positive feedback, and thanks for the support

I finally got to making a brief demonstration video for application tape. I lost the video of me stickering the entire cube, so I just re-stickered the blue side for the video. Here it is:

I also would like to suggest having pictures of the stickers on cubes, maybe a black and a white cube. Especially the fitted stickers.
I feel like I saw something like that somewhere before on the site actually but can't find anything.

Actually wait that would be a lot of work. Maybe just the full sets (standard, HB, FB).

 

[SweetSolver]

Nice video, I'm sure it will be very helpful for many people. Just a quick question, what did you use to get the residue off the cube?

Yes, it would be a lot of work, but thanks for the suggestion -- we'll definitely look into doing that, especially for the more popular shades.

Thanks for the feedback. I used Goo-Gone to remove the residue, but the stuff is kind of toxic and it can irritate the skin if you touch it. Rubbing alcohol would work just fine too.

We just recently released a new feature that allows you to pick and save your own custom color scheme on the site! You can also share your color scheme with anyone you want, like this:

This feature is still in development phase, so if you have any suggestions about how you want this feature to work, please feel free to let us know here or by email ([email protected]).
