I've used PlastiX on my SS razors to get a good shine and Autosol for the brass/bronze so will give it a try over the weekend.
Sure looks super sexy when polished!

If you guys really really appreciate and loved super high glossy polished shiny razors, get yourself a Wolfman, sooner or later @alfredus knows he’s a thousand percent right.
Otherwise, I just loved the original look of my R94 without all that super high glossy polished shiny bulls
t waste of time.

I guess you could change the centre but I prefer the contrast between the matte and gloss!
Honestly it only took about a minute on each part, very careful to not overdo it!

Great job mate, get some Dremel action on it and make it really shine!Inspired by @Phunk I have pimped my R96 using Autosol and traditional elbow grease
As nice as the polished finish is I will happily keep my R94 & R96 in satin finish.
I would have love to have done your black version too, the contrast would be a lot more noticeable!

Don't be too scared of good old Autosol, it's very forgiving!
I polish mine and the Mrs wedding bands up here and then with it

I was reluctant to try the others incase I change the shave feel but am very happy with the finish I got.
Cheers for the inspiration and here's hoping it still shaves smooth/efficiently...???

Purely cosmetic mate, only polished the outside parts that you can see and feel.. all the blade parts are untouched

Haha you funny buggerSounds like a polish lube finger.
Sssssssh keep your voice down, otherwise, you’ll have a nasty wooden rolling pin over your head from your wife.
Hmmm. 
If Mühle had made my R95 shiny like that, I've a feeling I wouldn't have bought it, no matter how well it shaves. If you want bling, just get one of those "common" wolfpersons. I reckon Mühle nailed it with the satin finish...

I see where you're coming from..Hmmm.
I've mentioned it in the past, I'm a fan of the traditional looking bright chrome razors. The R41 and the DE89 I have absolutely shine.
The matte finish looks very industrial.
I still kept the original finish in the middle but gave it some contrast to get that shine I want back.
