okay, I work in foodservice...and we use a compound consisting of sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide...our deep fat fryers are cleaned using this compound...my question is, we use it in conjunction with boiling water to remove sediments and general crud from the metal in the fryers...would this compound used in dilluted amounts dissolve the nickel plating from my vintage gillettes? anyone ever used it in a boiling water bath for any of their razors? i have an old shaver quality superspeed that I'd be willing to use as a guinea pig if I am the first to try it...but I figured i'd ask around and see if anyone else has used it before and how did it turn out...?
if I am the first one to try it, I will post my results on here for future reference...
