Thread: GETTING FRUSTRATED

Stop counting laps.

Stay on the 1k and/or 4k until the edge passes the marker test and TNT simultaneously. After that, 3 to 5 or more of the lightest possible laps you can manage. Then move up to the next finer grit.

When you get to the 8k, test using the TPT or HHT, no more TNT. After the 8k point your razor should feel very similar to a DE blade. Then very lightly on the 12k. If it's a Chinese 12k, use at least 80 laps (140 might be better). You should be able to notice a nice change after each step up in grit.
