SKU: FLEXI-4WAY Category:

Description

The 4-Way Flexi-File comes with four grades of micro abrasives which work through the entire polishing process of wood, metals and plastics from deburring to a very smooth final finish.

One side of the 4-Way Flexi-File features abrasive grades 180 (black) and 2400 (pink). Grade 180 is very coarse and used first to rapidly remove material, followed by 2400 to roughen the surface.

The other side of the 4-Way Flexi-File is covered with grades 4000 (white) and 12000 (grey). 4000 is next used to smooth with 12000 applying the final fine finish.

4-Way Flexi-Files are easy to use. As a padded board coated with Sylmasta Micro Abrasives, they maintain even pressure during application and come with a degree of flexibility which allows them to take the shape of the item being worked.

Sylmasta Micro Abrasives feature a cushioned holding layer to prevent the abrasive grit from digging into the surface and cutting aggressively. This enables them to cut surfaces and materials with a planing motion, creating an extremely consistent, regular and fine scratch pattern.

This high-quality finish and the flexibility of the 4-Way Flexi-File makes it a popular tool with model makers, restorers, and those in the wood and metal finishing industries for polishing contoured areas and smoothing jagged edges.

The 4-Way Flexi-File is 150mm long. It is reusable and lasts a long time, making it a cost-effective polishing tool. It conforms to NATO stock number (NSN) 5110-01-345-8260.

4-Way Flex-Files can be purchased separately or as part of the 4-Way Flexi-File & 50ml Micro Abrasive Gloss Liquid Set.

Micro Abrasive Gloss Liquid is applied after finishing with a Flexi-File. It contains a one micron sized aluminium oxide abrasive crystal which works to remove residual fine scratches from surfaces, creating a shiny mirrored finish of the highest gloss.
