Generally my hands aren't wet after the initial face wash, so don't get slippery. (Serious - not dialysis*) * What weighs a tonne and sits at the bottom of your bed taking the p***? A kidney dialysis machine.

antdad Messages 10,991 Tuesday July 21, 2009 #5 I will try that especially when with using my smallest handled brush... but how do you stop the alum from slipping? :shock:

Click to expand... I did not know that, thanks. I only have one Gold Razor, a New commom bar Open Comb but I will watch I keep that and the alum away from each other.
