Thread: Oh for pete's sake. Help.

Ok, so apparently I'm a total moron.

Lacking mineral oil to oil my blades, and living in a very humid climate where regular oiling ain't a bad idea, I made due.

First time around was olive oil. No problems.

This time...

I used soy bean oil.

Apparently that was THE WRONG THING TO USE, because now after a couple days there is a sticky film on my blades.

I tried using dishwasher soap. Didn't really help a whole lot. Tried (very carefully)with an old toothbrush. Slight improvement, but still sticky. Cut my thumb open. Decided to call it a day.

What in the hell do I have to do to get this crap off? And I'm sure it's gotten in the scales too so even if I get it off, every time I close the blade... argh.

Here I was, looking forward to a nice shave...

Goddamn it.
