Thanked: 0rust problem
I was given a low level Dovo from a friend. It is in good shape but it is just starting to get some rust on the blade. What is the best way to get rid of the rust with taking on a major multigrit sanding job? Also, the blade does not fit correctly in the scales--If I am not careful when closing the razor the blade will hit the scales. Is there a way to correct the problem without re-scaling the razor? Sorry if the questions are a bit elementary (I am a bit of a newbie). Thanks- Charlie

As far as the rust goes it should clean up with an oily rag, unless its gone farther tan tat. If it has your going to have to sand. AS for the blade hitting the scales, is it due to warped scales, warped blade, or a loose pin.

Thanked: 1587If the rust is a bit tougher than an oily rag, try one of those scourer pads you can get for cleaning pots and dishes - I've had a bit of success with one of those and a bit of WD40.

Try scrunching up some tin-foil and rubbing it against the rust.
Seriously!
