Curiously, out of all my 16 razors, my wapinieca razors are the only ones that can completely clean my upper lip and leave it baby soft. With all my other razors, I may get close to perfect but not quite. Those wapis were just made perfect.

I get a clean upper lip most shaves. One pass with the grain and then one against.

I don't think I could ever do an against grain pass on my upper lip.
What i try to do is straight down pass, then re-lather and stretch the skin and go almost diagonally, or vertically. Each way meeting under my nose then coming in from the other side.
Hope This helps, and remember Take your time there if it is the problem area.
