Hey all, fairly new shaver here. I bought an ERN Crown & Sword off eBay, and I am very happy with it so far (it is my profile picture).

So far, I have been pleased with the closeness of the shave, and the daily procedure of shaving with it.

However, it isn't exactly keeping as well as I would like. One day I opened it up to find tarnishing where the blade rests against the scales, near the tip, and along the top ridge. I have almost all of it off with Never-Dull wadding polish that I bought from Meijer. I couldn't find any Maas. Which should I be using???

Also, I just discovered some rust inside and around the pivot. How can I clean this up, and what should I be doing differently to prevent this rusting and tarnishing? I dry it very carefully after every shave, and I store it in my sock drawer (as advised by others...)

I really appreciate the help
