Bit old I realise and may have fixed it, but a bit of masking tape either side of the "run" can act as a bit of a guide for height for the razor and protects the finish as well. Then minimises sanding damage around it.

Good tip Roscco. Never too late!
I should have included this in my previous post. I apply the tape directly to the blade.
This accomplishes two things:
1) It acts as a depth stop (same principle as yours)*.
2) The tape can be applied to vary the width of the exposed blade to accommodate the width of the run.
*The depth can also be adjusted by using different thickness tapes (like cello vs masking) and/or applying multiple layers.
