Precision Load; Face Lather; WTG/ATG/Cleanup Passes; DFS Result; 85th Consecutive / 269th Overall SOTD Post

As I unpack my shaving stash, most everything survived intact with one exception - my C&H brush. The knot separated cleanly from the epoxy, and there were no signs of damage to either the knot or handle. I scraped away the residual epoxy from the sides of the knot hole and used RTV silicone to reset the knot.

This is my first time using the v20 with my current lather-building technique. I slightly underloaded soap and added a bit too much water. Good thing I was using Seaforth because the 20.1 base was still slick and protective even though I got the soap/water ratio wrong. Happy shaving and have a wonderful day.
