About product

Gunze modeling file, the blade form

A file shaped like a thin blade. The profile is exactly what matters here: while an ordinary modeling file has a noticeable body height and jams in a narrow seam, the blade form passes even where the clearance is only a few tenths of a millimeter. It is used mainly for places that sandpaper and a sanding sponge cannot reach.

Use

  • Cleaning up seams between closely neighboring parts without touching the surrounding surface.
  • Leveling sprue gate remnants in recesses and between rivets.
  • Work in inside corners, where a thicker file would round the edge off.
  • Finishing places that a sanding sponge or sandpaper on a block cannot get into.

How it differs from the other files in the line

The line also holds classic flat files in a coarse and a fine grade, half-round and square profiles and diamond versions. Those are meant to take material off on open surfaces. The blade form, on the other hand, solves access, not the speed of sanding. So it is not a replacement for a flat file but a complement for places that would otherwise stay unworked.

Who the file is for

For a modeler who builds busy kits with many mold parting lines, deals with the fit of parts and wants a tool for places where ordinary abrasives fail.

Sanding plastic and resin produces fine dust. Work in a ventilated space and clean the surface after sanding so that dust does not stay under the paint.

FAQ

It will not. The blade profile is meant for access into narrow places; for taking material off an area a flat file is better.

On resin yes, just work in a well ventilated space. With photo-etch go carefully, as a thin metal part bends easily.

The grit is stated on the packaging. The deciding detail in this case is the shape of the profile, which the name describes.
