When restoring a razor I first remove the scales. Next with an old toothbrush and small brass brush I apply CLR and scrub the razor. I rinse frequently and repeat the process to remove as much as possible. DO NOT let the razor soak in CLR. Then I finish with bartenders friend (a scouring powder like bon ami) and brass brush. This gets the razor fairly clean so you need less sanding. Works for me. Am sure there are other methods out there.
