Files for Painted Surfaces
Shave bumps and dried paint drips off the wall without scuffing the surrounding area. These files are also known as denibbing files since paint imperfections are commonly called nibs. Use light pressure to slowly remove material with their diagonal teeth. These files are reversible: one side takes care of large drips, while the other creates a fine finish. The file sits inside of a rubber-coated steel handle and is magnetic, so you can easily flip between sides. The hold is strong enough that it won’t pop out while you’re filing.

Air-Powered Detail Disc Sanders
Originally designed to repair the clear coat on cars, these sanders smooth out imperfections on your most delicate workpieces. With a 1 1/4" disc that moves in a very small circular pattern, they remove tiny specks of dust that are trapped in the finish. These sanders provide a lighter sand than random orbital sanders. Ideal for detailed work, they are compact, lightweight, and produce little vibration. Use with adhesive-back sanding discs (sold separately).
