This is the scond razor Mum found at a shop on the weekend. A 1961 fatboy. The doors work perfectly and are even with a closing quarter turn. The dial feels perfect and clicks into place with no overvclocking etc. It was grungy as and bought sight unseen.
I boiled water and then let sit in dish soap. When cool it got scrubbed with a toothbrush . Then it got hit with some toothpaste and more scrubbing.
Under the gunk it revealed shhiny brass on those spots. The worst on one side of the handle. The top plate is is pretty decent. Noting I can do about plate loss. It still isn't clean on the nickel parts still. They could possibly get a better and restored.
Only spent about 20 mins on it to get it here from the pic in store. Blurry pic...Mum has never a taken picture in focus her whole life lol
