Hey guys.
I have a question regarding restoration of straight razors.
I want to soak my razors in a bath of white vinegar, to remove the tarnishing, rust and water-spots, and bring back the shine to the blades.
My question is: would doing this damage the (plastic, celluloid) scales? Is it safe to put them in vinegar? Or should I suspend them out of the solution somehow, to prevent damage?
I thought I should ask before I try this, just in case something happens that might be irreparable.
