I did a couple of sets of track in black concrete floor paint, just dipped them in and hanged them up to drip dry. Original factory nos track that I have came in cosmoline coating, I chucked the whole lot in molasis and it took the cosmoline and surface rust right off.

I bitumined mine, they came up real nice ! Not strictly correct though.

Makes a huge difference to a fresh restoration though.
