Review on πŸ’‘ NO OX ID Special: Advanced Solution for Electrical Contact Corrosion Protection by Will Anderson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Too much good

I also overdid the stuff and then ran every motor I had on the breadboard to spread it out. I've had a heck of a lot of time to fix things and get back to normal. I knew isopropyl wouldn't reduce lubrication, something heavier would be needed. I settled on what was on hand, carbon starting fluid. I knew it had a high flash point and would thin the fat well. I then proceeded with a round of 100% isopropyl. The situation got better, but I still had slippage. Then I tried a clean CRC Electra that I "borrowed" from work. I sprayed it on my t-shirts and started wiping down the splints. This seemed to have the greatest effect. I then started on locomotive wheels with CRC. Now that everything is cleaned up, my trains are running normally again. I still have some slippage but I suspect this will go away with normal use and cleaning. Now that No-Ox was on the line, and before I realized I'd overdone it, there was no pushing, no hesitation, no flickering lights, and no stall. I believe this material works if used correctly. I will use the material again. Probably. I have enough for several lifetimes. In the meantime I think that there is enough on the wheels of the rolling stock that is not needed. But when the time comes, I'll use up again, just not much.
