I have a set of Masterclub metal tracks that come with resin pins to use on my T34 build. Does anyone know if Mig's Metallic Tracks Burnisher Fluid affects the integrity of the resin pins?

I haven't got the faintest idea but would it be possible for you to do the burnishing before assembling the tracks (i.e keep the resin pins out of the messy business ...) ?

That's a great idea,sometimes the fluid has a hard tI me penetrating between the links,that would solve that also.

I can't imagine the fluid would have any bad effect on the resin. Having used resin at work for years, I've always degreased resin out of the mold with some pretty harsh fluids.
No problems ever occurred...
