Keep it as dry as possible and then oil the blade.
Are you planning to shave at night? Then you could leave it on the dash until morning.
If you plan on shaving in the morning then you could shave first and leave it out until you pack up camp. Then oil it...
Fun thoughts.
As a general rule if I am on a car camping trip I don't shave.
Although using the side morror on your door is interesting!

Thanked: 0Hay all, thanks!
Shaving in the evening is a good idea, also will bring the oil. I found this cotton thing at the thrift shop. How about open on the dash?we have a sun shade. I was thinking of taking a mirror with me.

Don't over think it.
Dry it off oil it and put it away.

Your going to be in Arizona.... Its a dry heat.
Wipe it off, keep out of direct sunlight and excessive heat. Take an extra razor, maybe a barbers hone. The strop sock is a perfect idea for out there, might get a dust storm.Mike

Even better buy a DE and use it for a few days.

Trip update. I've hade some good shaves and it seems that razors dull faster than at at home. I Wash my face and brush before shaving but still. The dust that I feel on the dash feels like 1000 grit and I think my facial hair is tougher out here.
When you all feel grit on the stone do you just Wash it again and keep going or do you think about starting again with the refresh? The 4 k stone felt a bit more gritty and the 8 k never got as smooth as home under dripping water. Next time I will try sitting in the car with the windows up and misting everything before starting.
Any thoughts?
