Is Rubbing Alcohol ok for a Straight Razor?
Hey there everyone,
For those of you who read my introduction thread in the beginner's section, you saw the pictures of the brand new razor I accidentally ruined when I took the advice of a Dovo employee and soaked the carbon steel straight razor in a diluted white vinegar & water solution which in turn completely ruined the razor causing it to rust.
My previous thread - http://straightrazorpalace.com/membe...-everyone.html
displays pictures of the razor, and the whole story behind it.
Anyways, I would like to know if using rubbing alcohol on the blade and scales would be ok to sterilize the straight razor, or would this pose any threat of causing the blade to rust, or ruining the scales?
Thanks everyone
