How to use the Mandrel Bit – step by step

The Mandrel Bit is the holder for sanding bands – the bands do the actual filing.

1. Mount the bit – attach the mandrel bit to your electric nail file (e.g. Drill Expert).
2. Press a sanding band on – the small notches in the head grip the band and hold it firmly throughout.
3. File – shape, refine or remove gel product at low speed with light pressure, keeping the file moving.
4. Replace the band – pull the worn band off and press a new one on.
