Thank you for the info, but as I said in this thread, It is not easy to find RC specific motor cleaners. I looked at most LHS around and they do not carry RC specific motor cleaners.
I will try the Loctite or try to contact local chemical industries.

Thanks.

Just go to any real car (1:1) garage, shop, part store, wal-mart?, and get some brake cleaner. Not really sure what you have in Brazil but I'm sure you could find some brake cleaner someplace.

but to come back to my question:
"...apropos cleaning: Question (I didn't want to open a new thread):
Do I really have to clean and re-oil all T2 '007 bearings (how it is told on the small sheet of paper "additional information for the ball-bearings) when i built the car the first time ?? There they say "Apply standard bearing oil in all ball-bearings BEFORE installing the ball-bearings in the car." "


Greetz,
Pat.

Hi, if you remove the bearings after some runs (depending on the track suface and cleaniness*), you may feel that the bearings are a little strange (with dirt inside them) that does not allow them to freely move.

So, It is nice to open the bearings after some runs (I do it once a month) flush the dirt out (today I do it with solvent, but I wish to use the motor spray) dry and oil them again.

This works fine for me and keep the bearings mooving free and clean.

Remember that clean is fast (always). and this works for all parts in your car.

Hope it helps.

Hi, I mean if it is not the first time you use the bearings.
If it is, in my case I flush them with WD40 and put some bearing oil as well.

They are fine.

good luck

Thanks. I knew how to clean them but I just wasn't sure if you should clean the bearings before installing them in the car the first time...

best wishes
