If you fingerpick, you also know that fingernails are always developing rough, cracked or chipped edges. And, if you’re like the Former Me, you just reach for a nail file to deal with them. However, the Current Me has discovered the perfect response to fingernail surface problems: 3M 500-grit sandpaper. The grit is so fine that it feels like velvet to the touch, and it produces a flawlessly smooth surface on your fingernail edges. One place to get it is Strings By Mail (stringsbymail.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1320), 6 sheets for $4.99.
