Title: Nail Buffers
Post by: Bryan Milham on August 17, 2012, 09:50:30 AM

Just came accross an interesting fact. Those Nail Buffing kits ou see in Chemists (and probably cheap make-up market stands) are covered in micromesh.

Black (Micro-Mesh 180MX),
Pink (Micro-Mesh 2400),
White (Micro-Mesh 4000),
Grey (Micro-Mesh 12000), to buff, polish, also great for polishing small acrylic pieces such as acrylic watch crystals and models.

So it you only want occasional use and not all the grades a better buy than eBay.
