Acquired a LOT of HO scale slot car track recently. The rails and end
connections are rusty, some very little, others, a lot. Need
recommendations on the best, non-abrasive way to remove this, without
damaging the styrene track itself. Preferably non-toxic.

Try electrolytic de rusting. Should be a piece of cake if
you have a battery charger, plastic tub or dish pan, and
some bicarb or washing soda

Be sure to let the group know what you use and how you make
out.


Come to think of it..Ive got a fair amount of HO tracks and rolling
stock out in the Stacks O Stuff.

Anyone want it? Pay shipping.


About how much would shipping be to 33569?
