Well, since no one replied to my question, I will answer it myself, for the benefit of anyone who's wondering. I applied the wax carefully, with a Q-tip, then waited till it was dry and gently buffed it with a soft cloth. No problems.
I've just acquired a new-in-original-box 4935 Lionel MPC PRR GG-1. Really a beautiful locomotive, and I'm wondering what would be the best way to protect its glossy finish.I'm thinking a high-quality liquid automobile wax, applied with very little rubbing. But could this damage the stripes (I know enough not to pick it up by the sides!)?Has anyone ever experienced a problem with applying automotive wax to a modern Lionel gloss finish?Thanks.
