Ah yes, I too use the ol' Mach 3 and electric combo. I use the same method you described. It's good you change blades on the Mach 3.

I'm not too sure but I think the general rule of thumb is: shave with the electric before showering. Don't get your skin wet. It makes it easier to shave. Then, when using a regular blade like the Mach 3, it is ideal to do so either in the shower or immediately afterwards to minimize the nicks cuts etc. When finished, immediately follow up with aftershave, face cream type thing.

I dunno, perhaps we need a "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" forum.

I think if you properly maintain your electric, it should provide a comfortable shave. Enough so that you could do it almost daily before work/school etc. It should be a quick and smooth event.
