Guys, I'm a recent (as of today :D) d/e shaving convert. I loved the whole experience, but there's one thing. The 1963 Super Speed I just acquired...well the handle's just too short.

So... I finally found at home this old Rotbart and Gillette adjustable. (third one is worthless it seems) Question is - how to clean the Gillette? Can I clean it in boiling water or it will damage the handle?

2nd Resto - Rubberset 400-3
Thread Starter: theretroshaveI picked this one up on a whim, and ended up finding inspiration in a 400-3 done by Gigster. I actually found his pics on a knife forum, and asked him for any tips he could provide. He gave me an extremely helpful, and quite detailed email on how to polish the aluminum to mirror finish. I'm not...
