What do you use to clean Lionel fastrack?
Replies sorted oldest to newest
I clean the rails with 91% isopropyl alcohol.
I'll second the 91% isopropyl. I'll add that I wrap a paper towel around a block of wood and wet the towel with the alcohol. I use a paper towel as it leaves no lint.
For stubborn areas. I use the abrasive eraser in Lionels cleaning kit first, then go over it with the alcohol.
A "bright boy" abrasive track cleaning block would work for this too.
My layout is pushing 16 years old, and conductivity is just as good as ever.
I third the use of isopropyl alcohol on Fastrack. I use a dime-store pink eraser for stubborn liddle marks.
All these guys are on point. I have used the same products. I keep track pretty clean but a bright boy for the tough spots. I am unsure if you can damage the track if you really push it with something more abrasive.
