    Default Crox spray?

    I used my crox spray for the first time last weekend on a hard wool felt strop. Do I have to spray it again when I decide to freshen the razor again? I thought it could use a fresh up since I used the same razor for3 weeks straight. Fixed that problem and got another one! Is about 3 weeks the time you would strop a razor with the crox spray? Is diamond spray better? Can I ruin the edge if I strop to much or to early with the crox? Thank for all the help!

    I don't use crox due to personal preferance, but I would expect that you could retouch the razor atleast ten times on a pasted felt with out re-pasting.

    You should go to a pasted strop when ~100 laps on leather doesn't bring the edge back. For some that could be once a week or as infrequently as quarterly.

    As to crox vs diamond vs CBN vs yellowstone, it is all about personal preferance so try any you think you may like. Bad Stropping can damage an edge fast, but if you are careful you are not likely to quickly degrade an edge. As long as you don't chip the razor it can be resharpend esaily.
