Here is one method:
Anyone know any other ways?
This can be done a couple, few times before the files are beyond repair, and they'll never be as sharp as new files. It's pretty simple:
1. Prepare the vinegar: place in a glass container, microwave for a couple minutes 'til it starts to boil, and take it out. I place it on a hotplate on "low", but this is not essential.
2. I prepare the files by running them under hot water and scrubbing them with a steel brush.
3. Place the files into the acid bath.
4. Take them out after five to 10 minutes.
Repeat steps 1-4, rinsing and drying at the end. Oil well, and let sit.
