I’ll 100% agree. I can show you two burn marks on the carpeting around our club layout that resulted from acetone catching fire on the track cleaning car pads when it sparked on a switch. The guys running the car both times managed to grab it off the layout, throw it on the floor and use a fire extinguisher to put it out. Way more excitement than a bunch of old guys need. 😳🔥🧯
We have an absolute rule now - no acetone for track cleaning.
