stedi Hobby Model Polishing Tools 3 PCS, Ultimate Precision Glass Polishing Files, 320-400 Grit, 400-600Grit, 10000 Grit

I use these for gunpla (gundam plastic model) kits and they work very well. Pros: - The two lower grit files (320-400 and 400-600) are the ones i use most often for filing down nubs and excess plastic, doing a much quicker job than sand paper/sponges. - The 10,000 grit file is great for finishing, leaving a nice glossy finish - Good value, if taken care will last longer than sand paper and sponges Caveats >>> not bad hence 5 stars, but limitations and things to know about before hand: - For gunpla, have a small vessel of water to submerge these files in + dry cloth/kitchen roll as these will help prevent mess from sanding down plastics + inhalation - These files sand plastics very fast but due to their size are more adept at working on larger pieces of plastics rather than small intricate pieces, so be wary when working on smaller parts such as the helmet as they will eat into the plastics very quickly and smoothly which may ruin the kit (telling from experience) - In addition to the latter, would recommend buying dspiaes sanding sponge set both low grit (both the 180-800 grit and 1000-2500 grit) for more intricate pieces + working gradually to higher grits will also help the 10k glass file achieve the glossy finish

One of the best purchases I have made for plastic modelling. I can achieve strong hub removal and file it to a very smooth finish. Excellent product although not suitable for narrowly inset surfaces.

Was skeptical at first but they do leave a mirror like finish! Used to smooth 3d prints. Only downside is they are quite small so not really the best for larger prints

Great files for all plastic model kits. And considerably cheaper than some of the ‘branded’ versions. They file well and the extra fine does provide a mirror finish! For gundam id recommended following up with a cheap magic sponge rubbing to smooth out and remove the shine.

These work great, use them all the time to tide up my models.

Great tool and easy to clean. Gives a polished finish.

Work very well, just need a brush to clean them so that you can keep using them.

Bought these at the recommendation of some YouTube videos to get a better finish on my Gunpla models. Going from some cheap pack-in sanding files to these was a massive step up. They always provide a smooth finish to your models that are almost impossible to pick up when taking photos. I haven't really felt the need to use the coarse file yet however the fine and super fine files have been used almost constantly because they just work that well.

I was using a tri-sanding stick from a local model shop before, and while it got the job done, it wasn’t great. I read online that many Gunpla enthusiasts use glass files, so I decided to try this 3-piece Stedi kit, especially since I already love my Stedi nippers. This is a huge upgrade. I made a mistake while cutting a piece from the runner and left a pressure mark. Using these three glass files, I was able to remove the mark and restore the plastic to a shiny state that matched the rest of the piece. They worked surprisingly well and were very easy to use. I also appreciate the plastic holders the files come with, though I’d recommend labeling the grits so you don’t forget. These files seem very durable—just clean them with a toothbrush, rinse, and air dry, and they’re ready for the next build. Overall, I highly recommend these to anyone looking to improve their Gunpla builds. I only wish I had upgraded to glass files sooner.

I never knew I needed these until I got them in hand. Now, I want more. They are exceptional at smoothing and polishing plastic. I'm using them for 3D printed parts, but as long as you stick to soft materials, they should work no problem. Pro:They come in reusable plastic containers. These are a must as you should never let the polishers hit each other, nor anything hard. The pattern for each grit range is easily identifiable. There is no need to read the label on the smooth side of the polisher to know whichgrit you have in your hand. Cons: The two coarse polishers have a different grit on either end. There is no way that I can see to identify which is which without running your finger other it. There should be an indention or bevel on one end as an identifier. I'm just going to try marking it with a high quality glass pen. Also, the polishers are at their core just special files. This means they need a file card to keep them clean and free of obstructions. The first couple items I tried to polish turned out terrible, as the polisher fouled out and drug a set of deep scratches into the surface. This kit should include an appropriate brush to clean the polishers as they are being used. One other change I would like to see is different patterns for the grits to allow for a better range of material harnesses. In this regards, these polishers are in a very early stage of development. I hope they catch on so we can have more variety. TLDR: I love them and will buy more!
