Silicone-based lubes
Silicube
Lubix
Crc silicone spray
Dry lubes
Graphite (Great lubricant, but doesn't last long)- Do not use on a rubik's brand, store bought cube. Only use on a cube which is already fast to begin with and needs a boost.
Petroleum-Based lubes
Vaseline-type products- These are questionably good. They works great on rubik's brand cubes, but not on many other cubes. Apparently they eat away at the plastic, which may be why they are great for rubik's brand cubes. The reduced amounts of plastic results in less friction.
Rubik's cube lube
Cheap and effective for rubik's brand 3x3s. I haven't tried it on other cubes, so I am unsure whether it would be helpful. However, a good job at breaking a cube in makes this unnecessary.

Side note: Just because I didn't post something on this page doesn't mean it's not good.

  1. Hi,

    Beautifully represent to here. If you are you looking for the Rubik cube solution formula, then you just put few things in your mind before going to solve this. First, solve the centers like a 2x2 (The 2x2 core). Don't let the piece extensions confuse you. THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION TO. RUBIK'S CUBE. A unique solution using only two series. You may also go through this Shengshou Cubes, which one also very good to play.
