Compound V is a new water-based lube designed to speed puzzles up. Compound V boasts greater water-retention, higher viscosity, and unique cohesion qualities to give your puzzles a lasting and refreshing burst of speed. Unlike traditional water-based lubes that bead up and repel plastic, Compound V sticks to the inner plastic of puzzles and synergizes well with silicone-based lubes.

Not to be applied to hardware. Water based lubes should not be applied to the screws or springs as this will likely lead to rust issues.

This lube is scented with a mint aroma.

Note: There may be some variation in color due to the processes involved in manufacturing, but the formulation and properties are the same.

For best results, apply two drops, and break in. To clean, gently wipe off your puzzle pieces with a damp cloth.

Disclaimer: Although the lube is perfectly safe to touch, please do not ingest it, set it on fire, or expose it to extremely high temperatures.

All of our products are guaranteed to be free of defects, or we will replace and reship at no cost to you. Please contact us within 4 weeks (28 days) past the delivery date to report any issues with items you have purchased.

Please note that some new cubes when being used for the first few times may experience what is termed a "pop". This is when one or more parts of a puzzle pop out without any damage actually being done to any of the pieces. This also occurs from time to time during normal usage. Pops are typically not considered a defect if the parts which come off can be reassembled by hand.

The corners on 2x2 puzzles should not be twisted as doing so may snap the piece. Damage caused by corner twisting is not considered to be a defect.
