Very nice, strip it down get the chrome re-chromed then polish the aluminum base then get round to your nearest upholsterer and have the chair covered in either a black with cream piping or red and cream piping I guarantee it will look fantastic.

I am sure you will enjoy that one. Do you shave punters/friends with a genuine straight?

Is it allowed here to use genuine straights in a professional barbershop?

Can you take some pics of when you're shaving someone, maybe even a video?

each state i believe requires a razor to be sterilized after every use ,if it is being used on the public .this requires an autoclave,witch is why most salons and barbers use the disposable shavettes now .
my family has had a barbershop for 40 years,and this is what i was told,when i asked.

Coincidentally, I was wondering about autoclaving a razor to sterilise it, but I fear it might damage the scales. The autoclaves at our lab run at 120 degrees C and 2 bar, which I think would warp celluloid and maybe even horn.

This is what i was thinking, I'll stay use barbicide for now. I think its works just fine, many guys in the past have used this stuff.
