STALEKS EXPERT 20 Straight mineral nail file grit 180/180, the soft professional file to prepare and finalise the nails
STALEKS EXPERT 20 Straight mineral nail file grit 180/180 is a professional file with fine abrasiveness, ideal for the preparation, the soft shaping and the finish of natural and artificial nails during manicure and pedicure services. Thanks to its double 180/180 grit, it offers a regular, controlled and comfortable filing, perfect for the steps where precision and delicacy are essential. This Staleks Expert mineral file accompanies nail technicians, nail artists, beauticians and nail beauty enthusiasts in all services requiring a clean, neat and perfectly prepared surface before applying a base, a gel polish, a gel, a top coat or a treatment.
A soft and versatile professional file
The STALEKS EXPERT 20 file grit 180/180 is designed to offer a soft, gradual and precise action. Its fine abrasiveness makes it possible to work the free edge of the nail, slightly correct a shape, smooth certain small irregularities and prepare the plate without an action that is too aggressive. It is particularly appreciated for natural services, finishes after a build, delicate touch-ups and preparations before colour application.
The 180 grit is one of the most used in professional nail care, because it offers an excellent compromise between efficiency and gentleness. It suits resistant natural nails, artificial nails, finishes on gel, acrygel or tips, as well as the preparation of the surface before the next steps of the protocol. Thanks to its two identical faces, this file ensures a homogeneous working sensation from the start to the end of the service.
A double 180/180 grit for a regular filing
With its two surfaces in 180/180 grit, this file makes it possible to work with the same intensity on each face. This format is very practical for professionals, because it simplifies the gesture and guarantees a constant abrasiveness. Whether to slightly shorten a free edge, refine a shape or prepare a surface before the finish, the file offers an optimal control.
The 180 grit is softer than the 100 or 150 grits. It is therefore ideal when one wants to avoid removing too much material. It makes it possible to obtain a cleaner, more harmonious and more comfortable result for the client. On natural nails, it helps delicately shape the free edge. On artificial nails, it makes it possible to finalise the structure after a more intense filing or to soften the contours before applying the finish.
A practical straight shape for a neat shaping
The straight shape of the STALEKS EXPERT 20 is perfect for structuring the free edge with precision. It makes it possible to obtain a clean, regular and symmetrical line, particularly on square, rounded square or ballerina shapes. It can also be used on oval and almond shapes, by simply adapting the angle of the gesture to follow the natural curve of the nail.
This straight shape is very appreciated for finishes, because it helps control the length, the sides and the parallels. It makes it possible to work with good visibility and an excellent stability in hand. For a professional manicure, a neat shaping is essential: it influences the elegance of the set, the regularity of the colour and the general harmony of the hands.

For which services should you use a 180/180 grit file?
The 180/180 grit is particularly suited to services where one looks for a soft and precise finish. It can be used to slightly shorten natural nails, correct a shape, smooth the edges, finalise a gel build or prepare the plate before applying a product. It is a perfect file for daily services, because it combines gentleness, efficiency and control.
It suits very well natural manicures, preparations before gel polish, finishes after gel, light touch-ups, refills and professional pedicures. On an artificial build, it can be used after a stronger grit in order to soften the surface. On natural nails, it makes it possible to work the free edge without an action that is too aggressive, provided a light and regular pressure is respected.
Recommended instructions for use
- Observe the nail: check the length, the shape and the condition of the plate before starting the filing.
- Work gently: use regular gestures, without excessive pressure, to preserve the client's comfort.
- Shape the free edge: use the straight shape to obtain a neat, clean and symmetrical line.
- Correct the small irregularities: gently pass over the areas to be adjusted without insisting in the same place.
- Prepare the surface: use the file to soften or finalise a build before the next step.
- Dust off regularly: remove the filing residue in order to better visualise the shape and the surface.
- Complete if necessary: use a buffer for an even smoother finish according to the chosen protocol.
- Dispose of after use: this file is single use and must be replaced after each client.
Professional tips for an impeccable finish
For a careful result, use the STALEKS EXPERT 20 grit 180/180 with supple and controlled movements. On natural nails, it is preferable to file in a regular direction in order to preserve the free edge and limit the risks of weakening. On artificial nails, this file is perfect for softening the contours, preparing the finish or correcting small irregularities without removing too much material.
For a square shape, keep the file well straight and parallel to the free edge. For an almond or oval shape, follow the curve with light gestures. Remember to dust off between the steps to control the symmetry and avoid small imperfections. This file is also very practical before applying a light colour or a glossy top, because a well-prepared surface allows a smoother and more elegant result.
Hygiene and single use
The STALEKS EXPERT 20 mineral file grit 180/180 is designed for single use. This characteristic is essential in the institute, the salon or during home services, because it makes it possible to guarantee each client a clean, new and perfectly hygienic file. After the service, the file must be discarded in order to limit the risks of cross-contamination.
Single use is also a real comfort for professionals. The abrasive stays fresh, regular and efficient at each new service. The client enjoys a clean accessory, while the technician works with a ready-to-use file, without loss of quality. This simple protocol reinforces the professional image of the service and ensures a better control of hygiene.
