Files must be cleaned during use to prevent their teeth from becoming clogged with any bits. Use a file card, a stiff round wire brush for this purpose. After several strokes with the file, stroke the blade with the card, following the same direction as the teeth. Also, rubbing chalk on the surface of the tool can help prevent clogging. File blades are very brittle and can shatter on impact. Never allow them to overhang a workbench where they might drop to the floor. After use, you may rub a small amount of lard/oil/chalk into the teeth of the file to make cutting easier from the loss of metal friction, to eliminate pins form and stick in the teeth, and to provide better rust protection
