Cleaning your Norelco razor

[CharlesW]

This is for those of you that might have/use the series of Norelco razors that can be rinsed under a stream of water.
Even when rinsed under hot water immediately after use, I found I still needed to take the blade assembly apart and clean it fairly often. No more!
I now put a few drops of the liquid hand soap that my wife keeps in the bathroom in each shaver head. Close the shaver and immerse the blade area in a sink of hot water, turn it on for a few seconds, then rinse. The blades stir up a nice suds and the razor will rinse clean. I have been doing this for a couple of months and the razor heads and blades are still clean.

:wait :wait
Note: This only suggested for cordless models.
DON'T do this with the 110 volt plug-in style!!!
Sorry about that. :doh

That's good to hear Charles. I've had mine for about 3-4 years now (Quadra 6885 XL) and am just now changing the blades...while they were $30 or so, the razor was originally $140 and is still running strong. I'll start doing that when it comes time for cleaning...Thanks!

I am disapointed Charles ...
I thought you found a new use for Spray and Wipe :lmfao

Sounds like a good idea ... just make sure the razor is unplugged from the wall.
I can imagine the headlines: Man found electrocuted in a pool of soap suds.

:lol
I might have to try S&W for the process. (Not really)

My razor is a cordless and I never even gave any thought to somone using my idea for a 110 volt unit. :beat
I think I will go back and edit my original post to add that warning.
