The razor sits out on my bathroom counter on a paper towel to dry. When I get home from work, I wipe the blade down with one of those silicone treated gun cloths. It leaves a protective film on the blade. I've been doing this for years, and haven't had any trouble.
Either that, or you can use a very thin coating of Camelia oil, or mineral oil.
Good luck....
