Hi!
Anybody uses wax (like Carnauba) on their razor blades to prevent water stains/damage ? Does it work ?
Come to think of it, could be use on the whole razor.
Good day,

I use Renaissance wax on my blades.
From Wikipedia :
Renaissance Wax is a wax polish that is widely encountered in antique restoration and museum curation.
Renaissance Wax was originally formulated in the British Museum research laboratories in the early 1950's. It is now manufactured solely by Picreator Enterprises Ltd. [2]
Earlier wax polishes based on beeswax and carnauba wax either contained acids or became acidic over time. Renaissance Wax was based on more stable microcrystalline waxes refined from crude oil. [3]
Renaissance Wax also contains polyethylene waxes. Some other microcrystalline waxes intended for conservation use (e.g. Cosmolloid 80H) do not contain these.
GOOGLE it and you'll get dozens of hits.

I use and recommend Renaissance wax, too.
Can I use this wax instead of protective oil, like castor oil?
And can I use the razor when the wax is on, should I apply wax on the cutting edge of the blade aswell?
