You don't need pasted strop though - clean fabric and leather is the stroping regimen between shaves.
Also, whatever damage you can do with a strop is magnified by many orders of magnitude with a hone.
I'd say your best option is to hook up with Kelly - he'll help you out with whatever you need helping out with.
appreciate that, my razor and supplies all came from The Art of Shaving here. Its a very nice store, but they reccommended the paste with the strop, unfortunately i found this site too late, it was only after i had applied it that i came to SRP. Im gonna try to clean it with a leather cleaner, should i condition the strop after i clean it with a leather conditioner as well?
