I use CF sometimes, with a ROUX ending. I suggest learning step 4 first.
Finish corners, fill in 3 ledges and 3 redges. Make sure that the 2
empty slots are of the same color. This helps out a lot.
I use red on top, so I'll explain it using red. When you have
everything done except step 4, there are 6 edges left. Of those 6, 4
are red and two are orange. But they all have red or orange on them.
Make sure EITHER a red or orange center is on top. This restricts you
to only doing M2, and any variation of U. If an edge has a red or
orange facelet on the top or bottom, then its good. If the sticker
facing up or down is not red or orange , then the edge is bad.
2 bad edges; (M'UMU')(M'UM')
3 bad on top, 1 in DF; (M'UM')
3 bad on bottom, 1 in DB; (MUM')
4 bad on top; (M'U2M'U2)
6 bad edges; (RU'r'U')(M'U)(rUr')
the last one is an ALG Gustav Fredell found for me.
HOPE THIS HELPS, HAPPY CUBING.
