Used my first DE Razor...a Muhle R89 today. I held it under the tap...used warm water and washed it off...ran a water stream under the blade holder, through the holes underneath and on the sides....dried off the external part of the razor with a cloth.
I plan to do this after every shave.
I didn't take it apart and wash the inside....might be an idea, when I change the blade, though ?
I found what I took to be some soap residue (I use Proraso Shaving Soap in the green puck) on the Muhle surface...so I polished that up a bit...as it is a beautiful instrument.
Is this process what should be done....or am I missing something ?
Please let me know.
BTW, I also dip the razor into warm water while shaving...to wash any accumulated whiskers and / or shaving soap off...after every few shaving strokes.
Correct ?
