I would post pictures but it has been very difficult to take them in order to see what is going on - I hope someone will recognize the situation and there wont be a need...I of course use standard care with the razor and strop after use and store in a dry place etc etc...none of my other razor have this but of course different steels can react differently...

My Wacker razor (standard finish) - mostly on one side - has several very slight small thin black - greyish 'stains'...as if you were drawing a dotted line along half the razor...

I have read hard water can do this and I do have hard water...is this it?

What can I do to fix this? use a high grit sandpaper to remove them? send to one of the big restore guys to fix?

Nothing?

Use bottled water if I use this razor again to prevent any further staining?

Thanks in advance.
