I just had a custom razor built, and the advice I was given was to match the protectant to the blade finish. It was a consideration in which finish I ended up choosing; for mirror finish, I was told not much was needed between shaves except a good wipe and dry, but use the wax for longer storage. For a brush finish, oil works better for care and storage as it gets deeper into the brush micro-crevices, and likely needed to be applied ina light layer every 3 or 4 shaves as the brushed finishes are more prone to rust. Regardless of which finish, I also like to do as BeJay sugested; a few quick laps on the strop before putting it away to ensure the bevel is dry and clean.
