Best cleaner that's safe for paint on lionel plastic body diesel | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Hello ,

I just noticed on the body of my lionmaster SD80MAC that there is a blemish on it. I was wondering what everyone uses to get grime off their locomotives that works as a cleaner but is also safe for the paint.

Below is image of blemish.

Thanks!

Miller

Have you tried warm to hot water on a slightly damp sponge yet? It woks good for most of my cleaning needs. Then dry with a clean absorbent cloth after.

I have used JT Mega-steam's B-Gone cleaner on all my stuff, it works great!

Is that on the pant or through the paint to underlying plastic?

It's hard to tell, the surface feels smooth, not chipped, and I think, but I may be wrong, that the base plastic would be gray?

I found an image of a shell on ebay, and I think it's gray but maybe I am wrong.
