Thread: Celluloid Rot

There are other clues here guys...

What brand is the razor
What are the scales like...
Color
Pattern
Warps
Cracks
Actually fiber disintegration
Corrosion on the blade
Corrosion on the blade in a pattern
Corrosion on the blade that returns quickly
Smell

All these are signs of Celluloid rot and once it is present it cannot be cleaned and it will destroy that razor and any other Celluloid that the gasses can get to...

NOW you have to diagnose this like doctors do, any one symptom doesn't necessarily mean that it is rot, if you find one, look for another, and Celluloid scales are not all made from the same formula so they don't all do the same thing...
