Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The AojSup 17Pcs Metal File Set requires no assembly. Upon receiving the set, simply unfold the carrying case to access the files. Ensure each file is correctly seated in its designated slot for optimal organization.
Compatibility: This file set is designed for use on a wide range of materials including metals, wood, glass, tile, ceramic, mirror, and leather. It is not intended for use on very soft plastics or rubber where fine-tooth files might clog excessively.
Care: To ensure the longevity and performance of your files:
- Cleaning: After each use, especially when working with softer materials that can clog teeth, use the included wire brush to gently remove debris. For stubborn residue, a solvent or degreaser may be carefully applied, followed by brushing. Always brush in the direction of the teeth.
- Storage: Store the files in their provided carrying case to protect the teeth from damage and prevent them from dulling or rusting. Avoid storing them loosely with other metal tools.
- Rust Prevention: While made of T12 alloy steel, prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to rust. Ensure files are dry before storing. A light coat of oil can offer additional protection in humid environments.
