    Default sticky fingers

    HI Guy's


    In this video, the guy uses some thing to make his finger tips sticky so he can stretch his skin for a better shave.

    Does any one know what this is??

    Its an alum block. You can purchase it from a number of online shaving retailers that advertise here a SRP as well as other online vendors.

    Yes, it's the same thing thing. I use RazoRock Alum, and if I want the extra grip I just wet my fingers and rub them on the block. It's not sticky but more of a sandpaper grip (minus the discomfort of using sandpaper).

    At approx. 2:25 he tells you that he is using an Alum block. Good video, Dov knows what he is doing.
