In my business I use a foot file called swedish clover. I buy them from sallys by the half dozen. I notice the new one did not work as well. I was really upset, so I thought maybe it was just a bad file so I opened up another one tonight and it has the same problem. The grit is supposed to be 100 grit. It is not the same grit.
Upon closer examination I discover that the file used to be made in the USA now they are made in china....they are using inferior sand paper. I am so upset as this is a major portion of my job is using this file to thin thick toe nails and calluses. I called the company and spoke with customer service about the product and she said she would research the problem and email me back. I don't want to use an electric drill for sanitation issues and the risk involved. Dr. Scholls makes one I think but it is not as good. This is really upsetting to me. bizi

That really really stinks --- an important tool for your work has become unavailable from your usual supplier. THat's good that you called the company. Have you seen this product:: Tweezerman Soft Grip Foot File? http://www.target.com/p/Tweezerman-S...e/-/A-12707924 Tweezer man: http://www.tweezerman.com/store/prod...ket-nail-file/ I bought mine either at nearby Walgreens or CVS but Target carries them. Are these the same quality that Sally's or Dr. Scholls sells? http://www.tweezerman.com/about-us/about-us/ Quote:
