Just make sure that whatever compounds you use are softer than the razor.To my eye is nothing worse than to see rounded off hand cut jimps on restos.
agreed. Thats why i do hand sand restorations as apposed to a buffer. I fund buffin often turns a razor in to a shiney blob. Not a good llok. I wouve seeing the original forging and grind marks, the way it was when it left the factory.
