Understanding 120/180 Grit
Nail file grit refers to the number of abrasive particles on the file surface. Lower grit numbers remove product faster, while higher grit numbers provide a smoother finish.
-
100 grit: Coarse. Used for shortening artificial nails and removing product quickly.
-
120 grit: Medium coarse. Ideal for refining shape, smoothing acrylic surfaces, and cleaning up side walls after initial length reduction.
-
180 grit: Medium fine. Used to smooth the nail surface, refine the free edge, and prepare enhancements for buffing or finishing.
-
180 to 240 grit: Fine. Best suited for natural nail shaping and preparation before product application.
A 120/180 nail file combines two grit levels in one tool, allowing nail technicians to shape with one side and finish with the other without changing files.
