Files are used to refine edges and remove material.
A buffer changes surface texture
A buffer block is generally used for lighter smoothing or surface finishing, depending on the grit.
They are not interchangeable at every grit
A coarse file can remove far more material than a fine buffing surface.
Natural nails need conservative handling
Do not aggressively thin the natural nail simply because a tool is included in a kit.
Use the tool for a defined job
Choose a file for edge shaping and a buffer only when the product or routine actually calls for surface refinement.
