Hi, Let me tell you about Maas poli***o clean the rails...(if you already know bout this stuff then don't read further). I used to use just alcohol. Wow, with the polish it is 100% better! I have to say that I am a bit tired. I have over 300 feet of steel track...not np track..just steel. I did it the old fashioned way. Put a dab of polish on a cotton cloth and spread it .... then ran my finger over the rail.....wiped it off....then wiped again......then used rail zip and wiped that .. but left the rails slightly wet.....watied a few(6) hours for it work its magic...... then wiped it off.....waited 20 mins....then wiped again..(dry) ....then waited another 20 mins then wiped agian....now the track allows for excellent tractive force. I also spread some polish on cotton cloth and laid it tween the rails and cleaned the wheels on an old old bb Athearn trainmaster....then dry clothed the wheels....then rail zip and the unit really really pulls and runs great ...no flickering light ..no spark show from the wheels.....(my son loves those) ..... it runs like a rejuvinated engine :) Anyway....I'm off to run trains again ... looks like a sleepless night. Sorry to ramble. Jim ps...use the stuff sparingly.
