Thread: Let my straight razor get rust spots...anything i can do?

Just a drop of Flitz or Maas on a soft cloth and it will be fine! It was just overnight so it's not like the rust had any time to penetrate.
Relax, clean it or if it's too horrendous to have in your den, send it to me!!!

Da1andOnlyPharo -- You want t take the LEAST aggressive approach possible so start with a little mil polish like Maas and just try cleaning it up. After it's only been spotted 24 hours you should be fine. Stay away from the edge or you will be sending it to be honed, in which case the honer can clean it up for you.

Are you sure they are rust spots and not just water spots with mineral residue? Actually rust is easier to get off. I like to use some Simichrome to get the stuff off.
