Vaseline works great initially, but it will destroy your cube after 
a number of years.  I had a great Rubik's Game cube that I took out 
after storing it for several years, and it dissolved the central 
burr.  The cube fell apart the second I tried to turn it.  
Fortunately I had another part that I used to rebuild it.  The 
pieces were still okay, but there was a slimy black coating over 
everything before I cleaned it up.

Silicone oil works just as well, and is safer on plastic.
