Premium Diamond Nail File - 80/80 Grit

Pro Impressions 80/80 Grit Nail Files are double sided & used for the removal of acrylic, gel & fibreglass overlays.

The Basics

Always file slow, in one direction, this avoids heat building up.

What’s grit all about?

Essentially all files are coated in a material similar to sandpaper; this creates a grit like coarse surface. Like sandpaper, nail files are graded according to how much grit they contain per square inch. The general rule is the lower the grit number the coarser the file. Whilst you might think it will be quicker to always use the coarsest file, this is incorrect. Each grit combination has been carefully designed for use in a particular task. Choosing the wrong file could cause significant damage to the nail.

What grit should I use?

80 Grit – Extra Coarse

The coarsest file used for removing acrylic, gel and fibreglass overlays.

Do not use on natural nails.

100 Grit - Coarse

A coarse file that can safely be used on artificial nails only.

180 Grit – Medium Coarse

A medium file used in the preparation of the nail plate before acrylic and gel application. Also for shaping artificial nails.

The lowest grit file that can be used on natural nails if they are not brittle

240-600 Grit – Soft Grit

The softer, finer grit can be used on natural nails. Ideal for finishing the nail e.g. buffing for a smooth finish or buffing away stains.

Therefore this is an essential product where nails are concerned.

Great for Salon use or even use at home!
