What king of oil and lubrication is better when oiling Rubik's cube?

WD40, Motor Oil, I heard many things. What the work the best?

The best is used by the pros. We call this silicone. You can get the solution to an automatic berth for less $ 5. Here's a video on how to lubricate your cube. Go to YouTube and just search and you'll see tons of videos. WD40 is very risky and can damage cube. I learned the hard way. Engine Oil not work. The pros also use protroleam jelly, but is also very risky, and this could damage the cube. I used this lube called "It works great and you can get into something of a parlor, because it is used to lubricate these things for a haircut when they are cornered. When you buy your cube, play with him for a while untiil Getae little smoother. This may take the first 100 addresses. To accelerate this process, you can sand, but do not overdo it. Then you break the cube open by putting a flat object under one cube edge and prying. Therefore, it is easy to take the rest of. Then, it can expose layers 3 and 4 newsprint, corners with corners and edges to edges. The thing that looks like an "X" and all the center pieces can be put aside. Then you spray the pieces a bit, WIAT 10 minutes to dry, then flip to the other side and repeat the process. After you have finished, you have to put the cube back it resolved POSITION. If you put it in ramdomly, only 1 in 12 chance it will be solvent. First, you put in cubes of edge and corner. For the last corner, it is very difficult to implement, if u take a cube edge. Put the two corners, one left and one on the right you will have the space where the cube edge is supposed to be in the middle. Then try with a little force to push the cube edge bit in. Good Luck!
