Two questions on restoring
Hi all. So, I'm still going a little crazy and have had ebay razors coming in a few times a week. I hit my first sweet spot in a straight shave last week and now I'm really hooked. This one day it all just clicked. :-)
Anyway, two questions.
1) When you have blades that are, what I think I'd call anodized... they're the smooth darker gray, not the shinny stainless steel look... how do you remove spots/rust. Do you just sand and not worry about the darker color or is there another way to do it to preserve the look?
2) What is the dark black/grey stain on some of the ebay blades I've gotten. It's not rough like rust and it's not doesn't come off easily. It's almost like the blade is stained in these spots. Is this just tarnish? Sanding seems to work but very, very slowly. Is that the only way to remove these spots? Sanding? Would MASS work better over a longer period of time? Am I even making sense?
Thanks for all the help!
