Bob: <br /> <br />Thanks much for the information and for sharing your experiences. Nothing beats an education degree from the School of Hard Knox. lol I'm going to try to gets some Blue Magic the next time I'm at Wally World. <br /> <br />Back in the 70's, Amway (choke-choke) came out with some kind of a metal polish in paste form. I tried using it on my brass track (I didn't use nickel-silver back then). It did clean the rails, but was impossible to keep off of the ties and rail plates/spikes, etc. The result was track that looked like snow was drifting down it. Over time, the white turned a greenish color. I couldn't get it off except by running hot water over it with lots of scrubbing. So I will personally never use a paste product again on my track unless it will completely evaporate, leaving no remaining residue. <br /> <br />BTW, if anyone would like some nice, clean, brass snap-track, please contact me. <br /> <br />Thanks again! <br />Val <br />
