What's your cleaning routine?

I have an empty Stridex container that I use to soak cotton balls in rubbing alcohol, then every few days I'll give my razor a good wipe down to get as much soap scum as I can.
I'd like to do it after every shave but there's not always time.

I only rinse mine I need to get the white buildup off.

Rubbing alcohol is IMO more convenient than Barbicide. Just rinsing doesn't really clean the razor in my experience. Soap scum probably doesn't effect the razor terribly, but I prefer to keep mine looking nice.

After every safety razor shave, I perform a cold water rinse on my razor and blade, shake it, and do a alcohol spray (3oz container) and let it air dry for 6-8 hours.  Once a month... I will clean my razors with a tooth brush with either Scrubbing Bubbles or Joy dish washing liquid with hot water to get rid of the soap build up.

Good advice as i was wondering how to keep the razor super clean

I tend to just tear mine down, clean it off, towel dry and back in the rack.
But, I also use a scuttle, so I have some cleaning and drying to do after I'm done anyway....

Can you use regular dish soap on the razor when it needs cleaned?

I use washing up liquid and it does a great job!
