Hi,
After having some bad luck buying a Gillette Slim (the geometry of the head was off) I finally got a good one
in very good condition...and it is older than me...and I am no long 24...so to say
Some language hurdle, before I try to explain what I am trying to ask...I am no native speaker...
In german the "stuff" in the water, which make water harder and which is removed by a descaling agent is called
"Kalk" <Ca(OH)2>...but I don't know, whether it makes any sense to say "there is chalk in the water"...?
Ok...because I don't know the correct word I will call this stuff simply "stuff" in the following.
The Slim I got is in very good shape and condition...the only thing are spots of "stuff" here and there at points,
which cannot be reached with a toothbrush or something that alike easily.
And Nickel plating isn't that strong as say......titanium or rhodium.
Before I do something horribly wrong: I descale my Espresso maker with a midl solution of
citric acid because it does not attack bronze/copper - in opposite to acetic acid.
Is it ok, to do the same with my Slim to remove the "stuff" ?
Cheers!
