Good luck, Ken.
Barbercide will also remove any gold wash on the blade or other metal. It made several of my razor scales gooey and sticky, not sure what they were made of, maybe rubber. They looked like Celluloid or Bakelite. We did perform several tests first but these scales were made out of something different or an older formula.
