Basically Vic, you can use any abrasive for anything, but some get certain jobs done faster than others. No one would use ALL the files and buffers durring a treatment -- you'll get your favorites and tend to stick with them.

For me it's always Koala to 'exfoliate' or remove surface oil from the natural nail plate and that it all I use it for (even though they are great for oil buffing) as they are expensive in the UK and Oil eventually breaks any file down.

I use the Outblack OR Hot shot OR Smoothie for tip blending or rebalance preparation as they have a heavier grit. Which ever you decide you like the best.

Kanga for side walls and free edge refinement.

Girlfriend for high shine -- simply THE best.

Tuxedo is great for surface refinement when you don't need to re-shape because you made the nails just perfect with your brush.

Use them all and then decide on your favorites. It's all about choices.
