How Are the Blades on Dog Grooming Clippers Sharpened?
Dog Grooming Costs Having a dog groomed by a professional, especially a dog that requires attention every few weeks or more, can be expensive. So, many dog owners purchase a clipper and do the job themselves. The blades in clippers can get dull and you might think you can sharpen the blade yourself, but, in fact, only a professional should sharpen clipper blades. Keeping the Blade Sharp The best process for keeping your blade sharp is to keep the blade clean. Make sure the assembly is oiled often with a special oil that is very light and designed for blades. Most clipper sets come with a small tube of oil to get you started, You should oil the blade during the grooming if you sense the blade is pulling on the fur rather than cutting it. With a small brush, clean the clipper between the teeth often, even during your grooming session. To do a good job of cleaning after use, remove the blade assembly and soak the whole thing in the oil and then brush the fur from the assembly. Blade Allig
