Liquid Protect - Motor/Braid/Track

Liquid Protect: restores your motor, cleans the braids, and keeps the track in optimal condition

The Liquid Protect Motor/Braid/Track by Tectime (ref. TT0452) is a versatile maintenance product designed for the slot car enthusiast who wants to get the most out of their components. With a single reference, it covers three of the most common needs in the workshop: motor care, braid cleaning, and track rail maintenance.

Main features

• Motor restorer: acts directly on internal parts, optimizing performance and helping to restore motor response.
• Braid cleaner: removes accumulated dirt from the braids, improving electrical contact and power transmission.
• Track treatment: suitable for application on track rails, helping to maintain stable conductivity.
• Liquid formula: easily penetrates both open and closed motors, reaching the internal braids.

Recommended applications

This product is especially useful in three specific situations:

1. Open motor: apply the liquid directly onto the motor's braids.
2. Closed motor: introduce the liquid inside the motor, ensuring it reaches the braids before removing the excess.
3. Braids and track: apply to the contact area to clean residues and improve conductivity.

Usage instructions

The process is straightforward and does not require completely disassembling the car. Apply the Liquid Protect on the motor's braids or inside if it is a closed motor. Ensure the liquid penetrates and reaches the braids. Then, shake the motor to expel the excess liquid and remove any remaining residue. For braids and track, apply a small amount to the area to be treated and wipe off the excess with a cloth.

Behaviour and performance

A clean and well-maintained motor responds more predictably and consistently, which makes a difference in both competitive sessions and recreational running. Dirt and oxidation on contacts are two of the most common causes of performance loss in slot motors, and Liquid Protect acts directly on both. Similarly, clean braids ensure stable current pickup, preventing micro-disconnections that affect the vehicle's response.

Usage recommendations

• Do not apply excessively: a small amount is sufficient. The excess can dirty other parts of the car.
• Shake the motor well after application to expel any remaining liquid from the inside.
• Perform a brief test run after treatment to ensure the motor responds correctly before using it in competition.
• Use it preventively, not just when the motor has already lost performance.

Frequently asked questions

Is it suitable for any type of slot motor?

Yes, it is designed for both open and closed motors. For closed motors, just ensure to apply enough liquid to reach the internal braids.

Can I use it directly on the track rail?

Yes, one of its functions is precisely the cleaning and maintenance of track rails, improving conductivity and contact with the car's braids.

How often should I apply it?

It depends on usage. In frequent competition sessions, periodic maintenance before or after each intense day is recommended. In recreational use, applying it when you notice a loss of response or performance in the motor is usually sufficient.

Is it necessary to clean the excess liquid after application?

Yes, it is important to remove the excess by shaking the motor and wiping off the residue with a cloth. Excess liquid could dirty other parts of the car or affect tyre grip.

Does it also work for cleaning external braids on the motor?

Yes, the product is suitable for both the motor's braids and the car's contact braids, helping to maintain a clean and stable current pickup.

Tectime's Liquid Protect Motor/Braid/Track (ref. TT0452) is a versatile maintenance fluid for slot car motors, braids, and track rails. Ideal for both open and closed motors, it restores performance, cleans electrical contacts, and ensures stable current pickup. A must-have in any slot car workshop for regular maintenance and competition preparation.
