[quote user="Driline"][quote user="Pondini"][quote user="cmrproducts"] <p class="MsoNormal">Cleaning has to be done continuously.<span> </span>This is where the modeling community is in a rut and why there are so many companies out there producing cleaning cars.<span> </span>Everyone stated that I run my (fill in the blank here) type of car before I run my layout.<span> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal">>>> snip <<<< </p><p class="MsoNormal">BOB H – Clarion, PA</p><p>[/quote]</p><p> </p><p>Gee, Bob, don't you think you're exaggerating just a bit? "Everyone stated that I run my ... before I run my layout"? Pray tell, just where did you see that, or anything like it? You must be reading some other thread. I didn't say it in my post, and I didn't see it in any other post. In fact, I stated that I clean about every 18 months. Yes, months.</p><p>I've tried the process, and found it too much work for the results . . . for me, on a previous layout, in very tough conditions. If you like it, and it works for you, great. Conditions in train rooms vary widely, and I suspect this has more to do with how clean track stays than the method. Maybe not. But please don't put words in my mouth, ok? </p><p> </p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Geeeez.. a little grumpy arn't we? He was only making a general statement and it wasn't blasted towards you.</p><p>I think somebody woke up on the wrong side of the tracks today<span class="smiley">[:-^]</span></p><p><span class="smiley">As for me..I'm headed out to Wally World to get me some "<font color="#0000ff">BLUE MAGIC</font>"!</span></p><p>[/quote]</p><p> </p><p>I apologize if I offended you, Driline. I guess I'm just a bit tired of utter misrepresentation of cleaning by a few of the True Believers. "Everyone" did NOT state anything even remotely like that. </p><p>As I've always said, if it works for you, great. If not, I've had very good success with the Clean Machine. Your mileage may vary.<br /> </p>
