Black Type SS Restoration and limscale removal

Hi alls.

I need help to find cleaning and restoration's (no sanitizing) links & resources on B&B because I´m waiting for a Black Tip Gillette Super Speed that I've purchased on Ebay.

I'm very interested in how to remove the rust and lime scales. I'm not lazy but in B&B are a lot of resources and my english isn't so good.:20:

Looking for on B&B topgumby member told me about Scrubbing Bubless and MAAS, but I'm from Spain and I don't know if is possible to find its in my country. Could somebody tell me the maine ingredient of this cleaner or his use? The same question for MAAS polish (I supose it's a metalpolish) It's Ok for every kind of metal or I have to look for a metalpolish for an specific metal?

I heard that Coca-Cola removes the rust. It's truth? How about hydrogen peroxide (agua oxigenada in spanish) or an amonnia's solution?

What kind of treatment is the best for the black piece of the razor?

Otherwise, have somebody any oppinion about the Guillette Black Tipe SS' shave?.

Thanks everybody.
 
The Scrubbing Bubbles product is primarily a bathroom tile and bathtub cleaner. I suspect that you can find a similar product in your area designed for cleaning accumulated soap on hard surfaces.

As far as the MAAS polish is concerned, a polish intended for silverware (forks, spoons, etc.) would probably work as well. Be very careful with any polish, as the plating is very thin. For the most part, there is little or no tarnish to remove anyhow.

Other than some kind of some type of bathroom soap cleaner, I'd stay away from cleaning the black handle. The black may come off if you scrub it.

I believe that the TTO knob on the black tip is entirely black plastic--not a coating on another material.
