My nails are very thick and difficult to trim with nail clippers. Will this sand away some of the thickness so I can trim?

Yes, it will sand away the thickness of your nails. i would take it slowly so you don't sand away too much.

I would say unless your nails break some sort of record for thickness, you should be able to hone them down to the point that you could trim them.

Yes, this toe nail clipper will handle thick toe nails. My big toe is pretty thick,also. I have no problems cutting my toe nails. I really love the sturdy handle, as it doesn't bend like others I have had. Hope this will help you. Works great for me.

Definitely not for fine trim sanding-will not reach into small areas and you do not have great control. It also makes a great deal of dust. Best use is for relatively accessible, flat areas. You would want to watch out for grooving caused by holding the sander at too much of an angle or in one place for too long or using too much pressure.

no, you need to put a paper towel or newspaper down. It's just really strong to cut thick toenails.

I'm a firm believer in using "the right tool for the job" whenever possible. That being said, I don't see why you couldn't use it for toenails. The clippers do seem sturdy enough to work on the tougher toenails. However, they are significantly smaller than specialized toenail clippers, and may not cut properly. I would suggest getting the Seki Edge toenail clippers as well, then you'll have "the right tool" for either job.

it would seem to me that you would have to remove nail polish because it acts as an impermeable barrier so the nail itself,would not get the treatment. additionally you would need to sand down the nail to achieve better penetration. After all this you might get extensive inflammation and soreness, because this product is very very strong and aggressive.

Hi, I normally work on wood that is .5" thick but there is a clearance of 1" between the finger guard and base, you can remove the guard if needed. I also think the number of the blade will make a big difference. I normally use a #3 up to #5 for my projects but prefer the #3 on my .5 so I can sand less and the cut is much smoother. Hope that helps a little !

I know that if you put it on too thick it will do this, that is how you will know that it is too thick. I will always wipe the brush several times on the top of the bottle before putting it on. ALWAYS put any gel lacquer polish on very thin and keep away from the sidewalls of your nails and cuticle of course. This should solve your problem. I hope this helps.

probably not this is more of a polisher than a sander I have done many floors and I usualy get the rental belt sander and orbital sander for the sanding and leveling then you will need an edge sander to get up to the trim wear a mask and I reccomend a tyvec suit, it gets rough with old finish

You will not have a problem. We have 2 dogs with very thick nails and they cut them no problem. They are very sharp and easy to use. We are very pleased with them!

Yes, it is a firm but spongy surface. If you trim your dog's nails weekly, you should not have a problem.

I thought I just answered this question. This would be the way to go about your sanding job. Good luck...

If you have a really good pair of shears you should be able to trim down the liners without any problems. Good luck!

They can be clipped, the tips will likely be worn through by the time they need to be clipped again, so you will want to remove the remains of the cap, trim and re-apply. You should clip the nails just prior to putting them on. Your groomer would be able to shed some more light on your specifics. Cheers.

I purchased separately bits from Medicool also sanding bands (fine) to use. Now these are only used on artificial nails and if used on natural nails great care should be taken! Not sure this answers your question!

If your nails are over an inch and a half long then they will not be be completely under the light. otherwise it works great for gel polish.

I am using the brown sanding belt attachment that came in the kit. I believe there are three or so of those. Beginning on a low speed, after the dog adjusts, I can use the higher revolution for quicker trimming. Also, use some pressure against the nail and it works so much faster. Just beware the paw hair!!!
