As part of my clean up routine, I clean and wipe my blade and scales, running some tissue between the scales. With that, I dip the open blade into a bottle with a 75%-25% mix of rubbing alcohol and mineral spirits. One floats on top of the other. This is your basic WD-40 mixture.

The razor goes into the bottle well past the pivot. What happens is that between the oil and the alcohol, whatever water still on the blade or scales is removed and the pivot and blade are coated with a protective film. Wipe off the excess and you're good to go.

Cleans out the gunk in the pivot areas of the blades that I haven't repinned.

It's a "Mr. Wizard" moment.
