I take a short piece of scrap NS track 3-6" in length flip it upside down and at right angle to the layout track (rail head to rail head) & move it along the top of the rails with moderate pressure
Use it as you would any other type of track cleaning material or tool. Since both the track & "cleaner" are of the same material, density etc..there is vertually no risk of damage to the track.... scratching, pitting, nicking, etc
Not sure how to do that. Could you elaborate?
old school...LOL
Just remember to turn off track power
This sounds similar to "gleaming" using a stainless steel flat washer.

Living the dream.
I am curious if anyone else has ever used a short piece of NS track (3-6") to clean & "polish" the track on their layouts.
I have been doing this for quite awhile now & seem to have decent success
