    • Want glass-like frets? This is the kit to get
Size: Fret Smooth + Shine Kit
Fret end file is the only tool I needed to round off fret ends. Take your time and learn how to use it and you'll get pro results. The micro finish pads seem durable and they polish the frets like glass. Pretty amazing. I prefer tape to the metal fret guards so I never used those. Like all StewMac products, they are too expensive, but in the long run, this kit is worth it. ... show more

    • very nice kit.
Size: Fret Smooth + Shine Kit
this kit is awesome. Easy to use and the quality job it did on the frets made them shine. I haven't used on nickel but the stainless steel works great like a mirror finish.

    • A Little Overpriced
Size: Fret Smooth + Shine Kit
I recently picked up a Hagstrom guitar online, but the frets were horrible on it. Otherwise it was perfect and beautiful, so I really wanted to fix the issue myself rather than return it. This kit took care of the issue! I was very concerned about marring the finish, but all I needed to do was lay masking tape about a millimeter away from the fret ends along the bottom, and carefully filed off the excess. The tape prevented me from scratching the guitar, and the round side of the file didn't mar the finish as I rounded the base slightly. I used the two sided polishing stick to finish the job. It did take me over an hour to complete, but I took my time and was as careful as I could be. The result was really comfortable frets and not one scratch! For the issue that I had, the most important tool in the kit was the file, while the polishing stick worked great to finish the fret ends to perfection. Honestly I didn't use the rest of the kit, so to do it over again I would have only purchased those two items and saved some cash. The file is well worth the money, but the rest of the kit seemed a bit expensive. ... show more

A good kit of tools that for some reason is cheaper here than directly from StewMac, even with their 15% discount offer?!?
