Excellent suggestion!

What grit do you normally use between soaks?

I started with a lower grit, around 360 if IIRC to get all the main spots and devils spit off, then a soak. I would stay doing that, same grit, till the surface was relatively clean and after the final soak, then start with the higher grit sandpapers.

I highly caution you though listening to me, I've done exactly 3 razors this way....not what I'd call a broad knowledge base
