So I switched from a standard rasp to a Heller file for finishing work about three months ago, and the difference in how clean the hoof wall looks is honestly wild.

I mean, the finish is just so much smoother now, and I'm not fighting to get those last little ridges out, which saves me like five minutes per horse easy, so has anyone else tried a specific file that made their finishing work way faster?

I switched to a diamond-coated file last year and it was a total game changer for clean-up. The thing just glides and doesn't clog up like my old one did. It cut my finishing time down a lot.

Wow, you're making the rest of us look bad.

It's like that moment you find a better way to do anything and wonder why you suffered before.
