drdeemanda, Here are a couple of other points.

- Use respiration protection if you have it. If you get the bug and start polishing a lot of things you'll need proper respiration protection.
- Lay down newspaper or something similar as the polishing process will throw off little pieces of wool and polishing compound.
- Don't use the Dremel on vintage double edge and single edge razors unless they are solid metal. Most of them have are made from zamak metal with a thin coating of chrome or something similar and you don't want to break through the finish. Zamak doesn't tolerate getting wet.
