Red- N -Tacky over lithium John ?

I've seen where you use it mostly and I've read so many different articles with kudos for the white lithium..........is there better performance properties with the RNT ?

I've been using it for years and I've never had a problem, so I see no reason to change.  After all, the big tube of Red-N-Tacky is a lifetime supply, so I plan on using it.

Subject: New set up!
Moved in and set up in record time. Ready to rock n roll!
Had to scrap the 2 yard sections and lead in modules. Will add the two SIRT viaduct sections in the 3rd BR with the new layout. Track alignments between the curve modules will be done soon on the main, now garage layout.
What a journey!

There was an OGRF flurry, several years ago, stating that R-N-T had corrosive properties.  I quit using it on the basis of that information.  It seemed like great stuff.  What say ye?

Great progress!  Modules are certainly the way to go.  God bless ya!

Looking forward to more great photos from New Dorp, Grasmere, De Jonges and St. George!

I have a Lucas rep that stops by here at my shop on a bi-monthly basis, although I’m not a fan of red-n-gummy, it certainly does not have any corrosive properties,……We tried the product out for a little while, but found we really didn’t have a use for it. That’s not a basis for the never ending grease & oil argument, if you like it, use it, me personally, I just think it’s too heavy a product. In the colder months, we had a **** of a time getting it to go through a gun, …..but that’s my personal preference, again, if y’all like it, have at it….
