@@bramelsheretan Hi ya. Thank you for your comment. Yeah we all learn by our mistakes. If you use IPA make sure you fill it with a syringe, wish I'd done that. Merry Christmas to you and have a fantastic new year 🍾 Thanks for watching. ....Pete....
When I worked at Gulliver's Gate in Manhattan (the American rip-off of Miniature Wonderland) back in 2017-2018 I acquired one of these (as well as a similar unit from another brand - the name is forgotten with time) solely for the purpose of the vacuum feature. Because the layouts used DCC, and I didn't want to install decoders in them, I instead wired diodes to rectify the AC to DC for the motor. Well, it was worth the investment. Once a week I run them around each layout, and the amount of dirt that accumulated each week was amazing. Definitely worth the money.
Hi Stuart. Yeah with you there buddy. Was amazed what it picked up. Still got to try the polisher and friction pads yet. Thanks for watching Stuart. Have a great Christmas and New year 🌲 🍷 ....Pete....
Hi Pete, your video has given me inspiration to get my Dapol cleaner out again, I haven’t used it for ages, I should use it more often to be honest, but it was surprising how much it picked up from your track! Anyway, you and Su have a great Christmas and hopefully we can meet up sometime in the New Year. 👍🏻👍🏻. Cheers for now mate. ………….Graham
Hi Graham and Hazel. Great to hear from you buddy. If you get it out don't make my mistake with the IPA.I can live with the paint damage but it was something that wouldn't of happened if I'd used a syringe 💉. Yeah be great to have a meet up haven't had a face to face for ages. Love to Hazel, and have a fantastic Christmas and new year. Give Ruby a stroke for me. Thank you for watching. ....Pete and Su...
@@mauracurran6500 Hi ya Maura. Thank you for your nice comment. Yeah should have used a syringe 💉. Never mind learn by your mistakes ay. You and yours have a fantastic Christmas and new year. Thanks for watching Maura. ....Pete and Su....
I have heard many good things of the Dapol cleaner, so nice to see you doing a take. What a shocker, though, about the IPA and damage. That should not happen. Happy Christmas to you and the family... and what a cool little toy at the end!
Hi Anthony and Joyce. Thank you for your nice comment. Yeah all down to me for not using a syringe. Well happy with it's performance. Bob just a bit of fun, friendly guy though. 🌝 Thanks for watching. ....Pete and Su....
Hi Andy. Thank you for your nice comment buddy. Really impressed with it, wasn't expecting it to pick up that much. If you get one use a syringe to put the ipa in. Thanks for watching Andy. ....Pete....
Hi PETE!! Awesome mug off DEANO 😊 Great video too. Very interesting. I know IPA can be used for stripping paint off locos (as demonstrated by Chadwick taking numbers off. If i ever felt rich enough to buy one then hopefully I'll remember to varnish it first to protect the paint 😋Thanks for sharing this though. I can't believe the amount of stuff it picked up! Happy modeling ate and have a lovely festive season 😁 Mav
Hi ya Mav. Thank you for your nice comment buddy. Yeah you learn by your own mistakes, my silly fault for not using a syringe. Really nice of Deano with the mug and doing the intro for me. Thanks again Mav. Hope you and yours have a fantastic Christmas and new year buddy. Thanks for watching. Su says Hi. Thumbs up thumped 👍 ...Pete and Su....
hi pete thanks for shring this i always wanted one it does do good picking up the stuff off the track to bad the blue was coming off have a Merry Christmas to you and that little guy at the end
Hi Dwight buddy Thank you for your nice comment. Yeah mistake not to repeat, should have used a syringe. Have a fantastic Christmas and new year old man.😁 Thanks for watching Dwight. ....Pete....
Surprised how good it is a picking up all that rubbish from the track, shame about the paint work, at least you have warned others. Like your Christmas intro. Screen and novelty outtro. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Hi Roy, hope you're well. Thank you for your nice comment. Yeah Deano did me proud with the intro. Bit upset with the paint damage my silly fault for not using a syringe. Glad you liked Bob at the end, bit of fun. Thanks for watching Roy. ....Pete....
If U go to Chris code threes on e bay, he does vinyls for the dapol cleaner of several guises from network rail to BR Black, Loram for abt £14, they will cover marks up & rejuvenate the model, (I have no connection to him/them) love the video
@@AMP36Ty Hi Adrian. Thank you for your nice comment buddy. Thanks for the info. Worth sorting it out great bit of kit. You and yours have a fantastic Christmas and new year 🎅🍷 ....Pete....
Hi Lyndon. Yeah you have to be so careful when using IPA, learned my lesson the hard way. Very impressed with the vacuum, got to try the discs now. Thank you for watching buddy. ....Pete....
Sorry to hear about the paintwork. Seems a design weakness if they recommend IPA. I think the washer you asked about might be a spare for under the tank filler cap. I've got one of these wagons (non-DCC) and I only use it as a travelling vacuum.
Hi Tom. Thanks for that information buddy. Well happy with it's performance so far. My fault for not using a syringe. Learn by your mistakes ay. Thank you for watching. ....Pete....
Hi Andy. Thanks buddy. Wish had of been blue plastic, I was most surprised getting it all over my hands. Thanks for watching Andy mate. ....Pete and Su....
Hey Pete. Word of warning. IPA is the equivalent of a paint stripper. I discovered this to my detriment and wrecked the paint on one of my locos so now won't use it other than on a cotton bud for cleaning old motors and wheels. Is methylated spirits a less harmful alternative? Thats what i use on my track. Love your mate Bob's message. Merry Christmas my friend. Happy Trains
Hi Mon. Thank you for your nice comment buddy. Yeah I've learnt the hard way, should have used a syringe 💉. Sorry to hear about your loco but until we make these mistakes we don't know. Hope I've given others the heads up. Glad you liked Bob, friendly little fella. Have a great Christmas Mon. ....Pete....
Looks like that cleaner does the job. It's nice to meet Bob...cheers James 🙂👍
Hi James and Dylan.
Yes great little buy should have got it operating long ago.
Bob is a friendly sort.🌝
Thanks for watching.
....Pete and Su....
@delphjunction1168 Yes, Bob does seem rather friendly, I wonder if he likes Dylington Custard 😁👍
@DYLINGTONMODELRAILWAY No he is into nuts, maybe nuts and custard would take his fancy.🤔
@@delphjunction1168 😁👍
food for thought, I had intended to weather mine when purchased, after seeing this, I'll certainly be painting and sealing it. Merry Christmas

If U go to Chris code threes on e bay, he does vinyls for the dapol cleaner of several guises from network rail to BR Black, Loram for abt £14, they will cover marks up & rejuvenate the model, (I have no connection to him/them) love the video

I think IPA will remove any track weathering as well Pete - suprising how much it collected
