It wouldn't hurt to give Matt Razor Emporium a shout and see if that might be something that he would do? I don't know, but it's worth a shot. Good luck, Marcos!

I reached out previously but I remember the price coming in a bit higher than I would have liked. Was just looking for some additional options. Thanks though
I’ve been working on polishing a Mongoose stainless razor head by hand. Since there are no tools involved, material costs are low – less than $20.
However, there is obviously the cost of time, and elbow grease. I also set out knowing that the finish may never be perfect, and there is of course the danger of altering some of the original specs. To minimize the risk, I’m not polishing any of the inner surfaces of the razor head, only the ones that appear outward.

Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

I've been going to do this as practice on a few vintage Gillette 3 piece razors. I know some of the top caps made of red brass look pretty cool all polished up. They can also be clear coated after polishing to prevent tarnishing.
