File grades - 22-04-08, 06:05 PM

Hi I wonder if anyone can help!!

I currently use 240 file for etching, these are purchased from my local supplier, I use NSI products now but don't go as high as a 240, If anyone uses NSI files what do you use for etching.

I use to file after application, 100 then 180 then 240 then 300 buffer then a 4 way block. Is ther any other files out there to which causes less filing?? Don't mind using them but my time will be much quicker...

My etching gradeant is more of my concern...

Cheers

I use a 240 to remove the shine from the nail then use a 180 followed by a white block. Good rub over with oil then buff to a shine with a girlfriend buffer or glaze n go

Also, if your application is good you should have very little filing to do to finish the nail off.

If you find you are filing for britain then i would look at your application technique and brush up on this. HTH
