Not sure what cream it was. An old cream sample that had dried out due to the type of container it came in. Threw it into the bowl with some water and started swirling away. Whatever it was did a decent job.

I narrowed it down to one of these.

AOS Sandalwood shave cream
T&H "Trafalgar" shave cream

Cologne: Saint Charles Shave LLC Bay Rum With a Twist Eau De Toilette

Result: 4.5/5.0 I cleaned up the 1954 Super Speed a little but it definitely needs more work. I'll be going to Autozone this weekend for some help getting the underside head rust off. I have white vinegar and Maas. I also need to get some Lysol toilet bowl cleaner and some Scrubbing Bubbles. It's time to clean a couple of razors up. The Super Speed was a gentle shave.

a close call this morning--my friend was over at the house, and while I was shaving, he slapped me on the back. Great guy, but he doesn't think sometimes. Anyway, no damage done.

No shave (bit sunburnt from yesterday, going to go smear some shea butter on now), but used Issy's Guinness/Bay Rum soap in the bath today. I am very looking forward to when he gets his Web site up and running! Great scent, great lathering and cleansing, great moisturizing.
