Barbicide - Anyone use it ?

Various things are supposed to kill HIV like bleach, alcohol and breast milk. As far as razors are concerned exposure to air is enough.

I'm curious - what does 'barbicide' do that your standard disinfectant doesn't? You can buy a 'dettol' substitute in B&M for 49p for 500ml that kills 99.9% of all germs. Does Barbicide get that pesky remaining 0.1%?

Barbicide is designed for barbers and hairdressers use, it won't ruin the plastic, Bakelite and other materials attached to tools. Dettol is wonderful stuff as a disinfectant and antibacterial etc.. but not good for some materials like plastic, it probably will ruin/melt/discolour them. So you can safely chuck the comb and straight razor in Barbicide and they will be ok but chuck them in Dettol scales may get ruined and comb will get discoloured and funky.
