Kind of a nifty track cleaning car.  Got this yesterday.

I think I will install some springs between the bottom of the car and the plate that holds the cleaning pads to give a little extra pressure.

It would have been nice to have a screw on top to the tank and two hoses feeding the pads with fluid.

Also I am thinking about a control flow valve in the hose line.

I have a few other ideas in mind.

Our club has two of those and we use them regularly in conjunction with other track cleaning cars. They were purchased at least 15- 20 years ago so I have no idea who made them.

 

They work well. The only issue I find is that changing the cleaning pads is a bit awkward, kind of like you need three hands to do it. But that could just be my clumsy fingers.

Does your club ever use scothbrite pads instead of the felt pads?

Yes, I believe one has felt and the other scotchbrite.
