hey guys, i was just wondering what you use to oil your cars if you do. I use this stuff.

[RightWayTrey]

I think most of us know what WD-40 is without a picture...

Do not use WD-40, it will corrode the plastic over time.

I use household oil, I know lots of people use silicon spray.

I use olive oil. It actually works pretty good.

[Jonny]

I have been useing it since speed coaster and it still works fine.

I've tried pledge and vegetable oil but nothing can compete with silicone spray...WD40 will ruin your cars over time...

[Jonny]

I have had them oiled for about 3 months. When is going to ruin my cars?

I also use household oil, it works really good. The train just flows over the track

I use valve oil from my old trumpet. It is short term but it works very well.

There isnt a set time that it will destroy them, haha. Yeah, its a bomb. In three weeks, your cars will fall apart.

Seriously, it does damage your cars. I use powdered graphite.

i have been useing the oil for about five mouths. when is it going to damage the car. By the way the track i oiled too in not sure if that helps.

[Pyro]

It already has damaged it. You have used it for 3 months still. 2 months havent passed yet.

And no, Don't lube the track. It makes the wheels sleep.

Just stop using wd-40 all together.

[Kraken]

Not at all, but vegetable oil > wd-40

[Jonny]

so you use WD-40 and it does not mess up your cars?

[Pyro]

J-Boy, listen. It damages your cars. End of discussion. There is no need to ask, because it does, It damages his cars too. It isnt noticable right away, it takes time. Don't use it. Period. Sorry I has to be an ass, but you didnt get it.

[Jonny]
