Our Cleaner Strip material works great on your liquid tank cars. Our material is heavy weight material and will hold and dispense fluid a lot better and more even. Our material has a great price for the amount you get!

As shown in pictures above, white Cleaning Strip material is warped around the Slider Block and held in place with a keeper strip.

As the Cleaner Strip gets dirty, just rotate the block to new clean position. When one side of strip is used up, flip strip over and use the other sides.

You might want to buy additional blocks to be able to keep cleaning track by exchanging blocks as needed. After one block is used on 4 sides remove and replace block with new one. Then as new block is cleaning you can get first block ready to exchange without having to stop cleaning. Just remove and replace over and over again. Before you know it your layout will be cleaned!
