Traveler cars:
Clean by frequently flushing with fresh water. Periodically clean
car by squirting a detergent/water solution into center openings. Roll car back
and forth to distribute evenly. Flush bearings with fresh water.
Do not use spray lubricants because ball bearings can skid, not roll. Once car and
track are dry, apply one (1) to two (2) drops of McLube

ball bearing
conditioner to ball contact surfaces of track. Roll car back and forth through
OneDrop conditioner several times to distribute onto bearings. Wipe remaining
OneDrop off track. OneDrop conditioner is preferred, but you can also use one (1)
