Hey Guys
I just acquired a Gillette Slim from the 1960's. It is my first vintage adjustable razor. The razor is in excellent condition, clean and works smoothly.
My question is about oiling these old razors. Would it be advisable to place a small drop of light weight oil around the adjustment dial, the cavity inside the bottom of the handle or anywhere else? As an aside, I frequently apply a bit of lip balm on the cap threads of DE razors. Is that a good idea?
Thanks
