Eric. Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 I just got a new Forrest WWII blade, plucked off the rubbery stuff...I use WD40 to clean off the residue left underneath. Is there a better solvent to clean blades? I've always used the WD but I wanna take care of this blade better than I have my cheapos in the past. Or maybe it doesn't matter?

Stupid title to the thread...sorry for the misunderstanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimV Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 It pulls right off. Then I like to wipe the blade with a cloth because sometimes there is an oily/waxy residue under it and since I have to handle the blade when I install it. I don't like that residue all over my hands. It's gone after the first cut. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
