    Hi all,
    This is a little trick I use to clean the the internal thread on a three piece razor.
    I just take a cotton tip screw it in all the way in and out.
    I have never had the tip come of the stem.
    You will be surprised by the dirt and scum that comes out if you have never cleaned the handle thread.
    You can even use a little detergent and water if its really dirty (example you purchased a vintage razor).
    Or if you want to clean and lubricate the internal thread I just put a few drops of 3 in 1 oil on the cotton tip.
    As some of you have some pricey razors it pays to take care of the thread.

    Works with Modern and vintage thread sizes.

    This is what I buy they are cheap and available at chemist warehouse. (In Australia)
    Cheers.
