Happy Birthday brother!!
Paint pen and micromesh. Another method stored away for future use.

I have a Pippin razor like this, but the paint is worn off.
Has some REALLY small details that look easy to lose.
Any suggestions guys? Name: s-l400 (52).jpg

Outback Mike showed us these softwax sticks.
This will fill the bill on something like that, FME

Interesting. I may give that a try. Have another celluloid razor with small letters that need repainting too. Maybe I can knock out two birds.

Got a notice that Maggards is having a 10% off sale.

I also see that they are now offering badger knots in the fan design but will be adding bulb style.

Just thought that I'd share.

Having some trouble getting the pivot stains out of this ivory.
Soaked in peroxide for a few days.
Any suggestions?
Hope all is well with you guys, just got over a terrible cold and back to work today.

What % peroxide did u use, Mike. Regular household peroxide will take awhile. (Week or more)

**JP5** · 03-08-2019, 04:04 PM

I want to clean up a razor without unpinning it right now. Any reason I shouldn't soak in oil now if I want to straighten the scales later?

What type of peroxide are you using? Pharmacy or strong salon stuff.
Hope you get better soon.

**MikeT** · 03-08-2019, 04:41 PM

Okay thanks, I see, I've been using 3% from pharmacy.
I was gonna go get stronger stuff but thought I remembered reading to keep it a weak solution.

I pulled them out and dried them in paper towel between wood.
Ill put them back in.
Wondering where to get stronger peroxide?
What strength?

Also, I'm still trying to find the parts for the jig to split the blanks of wood that a few of you guys have sent me.. Much appreciated!
I have some fun projects I'm working on in tiny steps! Lol
