Files - Care Guide

After each use of an abrasive file, it must be cleaned by manually brushing with a clean and disinfected brush or by other adequate method to remove all visible debris. After cleaning, it must be disinfected, which is best done by immersing it in (or saturating it with) 70-90% isopropyl or ethyl alcohol for five minutes. Allow it to air dry by placing it on top of a clean towel and covering it with another clean towel. Then store it in a sanitary manner, such as a lined drawer that is clean, contains only clean items, and is properly labeled.
