beat. Test it first on a small section to be sure that wheel slip-
page isn’t going to be a problem for you.
Another treatment option that has been around for years is a
product called No-Ox. It is a grease that claims anti-oxidation
properties. A very small amount is spread on the rails, allowed
to sit for a day and then the excess is wiped off.
I treated another section of my mainline with No-Ox at the
same time I applied the graphite. I had even better success
with No-Ox. It is still going strong after a year, without ever
cleaning that section of track. It was so successful that I have
decided to treat my entire layout with the No-Ox. I won’t be
able to tell you how effective this is until it fails, which might
take another couple of years. I noted that I am getting a lot of
wheel slip right after application, but that should diminish over
time. See the No-Ox thread

in the
MRH forums for instructions on how to apply it.

Apply graphite from a stick by rubbing it on the rails.
