I have used red Scotch electrical tape on some of my blades with good success but I got wondering about good quality 3M scotch clear Celo. tape. The electrical tape is .007" thick & the Scotch tape is a little less than .002". The edge on my A. Taglianetti German made 9/16" left a little to be desired Some micro chipping in one area near the toe. I wanted to get the edge in good shape as this razor may be sold so I took it down to my 1000 grit King then 3000 WEI WEI, 7000 King, 8000 WEI WEI My Coti under running water then stropped on my Shell Cordavan strop. All but the strop I used a piece of scotch tape on the blade & it worked great! only adding a little less than .004 instead of 14 over all made a difference I felt & saw. The tape held up real well & there was really little to no wear when I remeasured the tape. I am not a big fan of tape any way but I like this Scotch cellophane.tape.
Any thought's or ideas are welcomed!
