Bought it 1 week ago, now only know how to solve using layer by layer method and since after I know how to solve it got bored of it already. Cant do layer by layer time attack because my cube bought from toy r us and it's quite stiff.

Silicone oil is the best lube for cubes. You can get them at Ace or any hardware store. Do not use the WD-40 though, it will ruin your cube.

petroleum jelly will harm your cube, so far it's said that CRC heavy duty silicone spray is the best.
btw, there will be a cubers gathering in penang on 31st May, venue Queensbay mall Mc'D, time 12noon |

There's lots of Ace hardware store.. I saw them in Sunway Pyramid, Summit USJ and so on..
Silicone works well on almost all cubes. |
