When to Strop...

Ace,

When you clean your razor on the microfiber towel sprayed with Windex, do you see the gunk? Seriously here. Your process sounds like something that I want to try too.

I'm not against treating my strop, and use lather when I do, but I'm not going to treat it with stuff I'm trying to remove from my razor.

Before shaving of course you must strop razor (i do 10 on linen and 30/40 on leather)
After use i clean razor under water and wipe it with hairdryer and I let razor sit for a day razor.
After i do 5 on linena and 10/20 on leather
