Did not think of that, Richard. The wax was grungy anyway.

Nice looking strop, Tom!
Using an iron and newspaper to get rid of the wax is a good idea, Razorfeld. I have done something similar with candle wax stuck to carpet.sharptonn likes this.

Tom, steal a iron from your wife or go to Goodwill. Low cost there.
Are you telling me you have more strops than socks for them? I better get the sewing machine warmed up.
Did I ever tell you I've got a strop from an extinct barber supply company in NY with my last name on it?sharptonn likes this."The sharpening stones from time to time provide officers with gasoline."

I suppose it has a 'Razorfeld strop cover' of some smashing material?
I am really enjoying mine!

Nope. Just hanging out in the bathroom with the other ones bare-arse necked. (I have what I call hanging bench strops. A piece of pressboard the width of, and about 4" shorter than the strop inserted between the two surfaces and held in place with Velco strips.) Originally Posted by sharptonn

I can relate. Seems I have taken to drive a cruddy old car these days. The ghetto will deprive you from your nice car! Originally Posted by Razorfeld

A thought crossed my mind as I saw the green/waxed finish on the fabric I shared above.
Anyone think they mixed CroOx with the wax?
