Heres a good tip for you, use a flat mirror as the glass is 100% true rather than a wood table, 1500 grit is good but 2000 wet would be better but might be too fine. when sharpening just add a drop of water as you are sharpening.
My replacements cost under 10 I found this video looking for how to replace but this is interesting Replacements actually working better than the original ones
Fantastic. Not sure why I haven't thought of that before instead of being on my third replacement set in 6 years @ £35 a time in the UK! Here was I, looking to see if the battery was replaceable! haha.
@@sandydogy - Actually, I experimented with an old set of blades that I'd kept, before potentially damaging my recently new ones. Unfortunately, I can't sharpen mine as they are the double blades in each cutter, and it appears, slightly rounded.
I heard you can use toothpaste and just press it against your hand for about 30 secs 3 or 4 times. Toothpaste has gritty particles in it that apparently sharpen razors.
Indeed, dry honing a blade is quick, but cutting oil is worth the time for fine tolerance surfaces that need to fit well. Also, the oil dropper packed with the razor is ideal to "Break in" the first few shaves, as the newly-cut edges ride against the slotted foils.
@@maxmusclem I know you tried to fix it but understanding the whole speech is also important I am not American. American English is not easy for me. The answer of did it work is I tried what you did I am waiting, my beard should grow than I will try
1. If we keep replacing new heads, the same would happen - foil gets thin. 2. the real issue is what if the sharpened edges gets shorten - then it would not touch (or slightly touch) the foil eventually. Not sure how it would take...
