I use the back of the blade being replaced to scrub those hideous glue/wax drops.
I like this, well done and thanks for sharing.

"As for cleaning the razor, the best solution is to soak the razor overnight in a solution of Simple Green. After soaking, rinse thoroughly and the razor will be completely clean."
I have seen some tiny bit of buildup of the glue building up. I tried the Simple Green solution and it works fine. Just place a bit in the bottom of a cup, sit the razor in upside down, let it sit overnight, rinse and it comes out looking new. Works great!
I have been using the Genesis for exactly 18 months. For the last six months I have been using it almost exclusively even if sometimes, rarely, I feel compelled to take one of the other razors out of the drawer.
Having said that, I have never seen any need of any special maintanance. Now and then I use an old toothbrush and soap, as I do with with other razors.
Never had a problem with glue even if I change blade each time.
This does not mean that a person who likes to see all surfaces shining all the time including the area underneath the “cap” may feel differently. In that case I see why it would need more work.
