Product Review

This file is great for both professional and enthusiasts alike. 80 grit is the coarsest grit we stock and is the preferred grit for manicure professionals because it is the fastest at removing nail material. If you use a coarse grit for filing nails you will likely want to finish the look using a finer grit like 180 or 240. These nail files are made of high quality raw materials. You may spray them with rubbing alcohol but do not soak.

Here are some Frequently Asked Questions that may help you.

What do the grits mean?

The grit numbers give you an idea of how coarse the abrasive material is. There is no international standard so the coarseness level can vary between manufacturers. The lower the number the coarser the grit is. 80, 100, and 180 are generally considered files while 240, 320 up to 1000 are generally considered buffers. Anything over 1000 is generally used to shine the nail.

What is an emery board?

Emery (or corundite) is a dark granular rock used to make abrasive powder according to Wikipedia. Basically it's a nail file like the one we are listing here.

How to use a nail file?

Hold the nail file against the nail tip and file in one direction. Do not file while your nails are wet. If you find you nails tearing go to a finer grit.
