    Where are you in the world? There may be member near by to help. I have all the pastes and prefer .5 crox on balsa. Saves my hanging strops from being soiled. You may also look at finish hones or barbers honed for touch ups

    I am in the Cincinnati, OH area. I am considering buying a modular paddle strop in addition to my hanging strop to try different pastes and make stropping easier.

    +1 to the SRD Modular paddle.
    Not only for touching up, but as an every day and travel strop.
    Gssixgun has a great thread on maintaining a razor using a schedule of paste touch ups that I used as a guide.

    Thanks everyone for the advice. I decided to buy a modular paddle and some diamond and chromium oxide sprays.
    Regards,
    Ethan
