John, I think the concept is you can do better and perhaps not run your Trackman 2000 at all.  I would also be curious about the abrasiveness of the Scotchbrite you use.  Anything more abrasive than 600 grit is not recommended because it scratches the rail which exacerbates the problem.

Given the fact that I have zero issues running conventional or command on my layout, I don't see the need to slather the tracks with yet another liquid.  Even examining the track with my 600x microscope, I don't see any evidence that the Scotchbrite I'm using is damaging my track.  I suspect I'll be long gone before it does.

You also miss the point.  The only time I actually run the track cleaner is to provide a convenient load for testing a locomotive, so I really don't "run" my track cleaner at all.
