Track cleaning has been gone over so many times, it is hard to believe there is yet another thread.  But anyway, the whole article on non-polar cleaning (plus graphite) is well worth reading:

For a good discussion that's on OGF, try this one.  You will find links to a lot of interesting reading on the 2nd page:

Seems like most of the common cleaning methods are not that good.  Not to say they don't sort of work, but you can do a lot better.  No matter what you use, always finish with mineral spirits and a little graphite on the rails.  You won't be sorry.

This subject is so pervasive and important it really should be a sticky.
