Question 1: Would keeping my razors in a 91% isopropyl alcohol bath harm them? None of my razors are plated in precious metals.
Question 2: I see the term flea bites used often to describe the condition of razors. What is a flea bite?
Question 3: I have some old or new not sure which gillette razors but these are the common type and on all 3 both the ball end and the threaded end come off of the tube is this supposed to happen. Part 2 to this question on all three of these razors there is 1 hairline crack on the smooth part of the brass tube is this common?
Question 4: I was reading about using an old razor blade as a shim with the sharp edges cut off. Would the shim go on top of or underneath of the cutting blade?
