Hey folks,

How do you clean the shave soap scum off of your razor?

It can be quite tricky, especially in knurling.

I've tried using an old toothbrush with vinegar, but this isn't very effective. I've wondered if Isopropyl would work, or if it's too harsh.

Cheers

Even good wet lather leaves soap scum, though, especially if you have hard water.
