- Many people have been asking me to do a comparison, and here it is! I try to stay un-biased and use some "scientific" evidence to explain the difference between the two--and it's not a huge difference! Let me know down below what you think and which you'd rather pick up.
The Raser can be found at MajinHobby, a store that I've ordered from a good handful of times with no issues:

You can pick up the generic glass file using this Amazon affiliate link:

Man, you went above and beyond to explain the difference. Thanks.
Of course! I wanted to make sure it was more than subjective opinions as to why I love the Raser 😛
Can't wait for other companies to make a glass file mainly for gunpla but with a very competitive price.
I hope so! I can’t imagine it costing them that much to make them 😛
Ustar and Dspiae did it
@@nguyenleucduong3446 hello
If its for gunpla then it will 100% be overpriced just like everything else
excellent demonstration of how grit and shapes work! I will definitely be sharing this for future explanations/comparisons.
Glad it was helpful!
Your depiction of how glass files work was genius, thank you for this video!
Glad it was helpful!
the way you explaining 'technical' aspect in the most laymen possible is simply brilliant. not only it doesn't stops there, you went ahead to translate what does it simply meant at the end of the day.
Thank you! I wanted to make sure I could explain the difference without me just saying, "I like the Raser better"
@@aMillaGunpla hopefully to see another tutorial content related to top coating and decals with this detail of explanation!
Creative demo using the paper templates. I’ve been modeling for about fifty years and this has been the best comparison tutorial I’ve seen. I will buy the Razer
Gotta love it when what you search has a video of the exact topic your looking for 🙏🏽 thank you!
Hope it helped!
@@aMillaGunpla it did man! Thank you
Hey man, I know this is an old video but you gained a subbed with that creative but intuitive demonstration of the cutting action with paper. I feel way more informed. I look forward to checking the rest of your content
I've stopped using sandingsticks and other files almost completely since I got my Raser. Yeah it was expensive but it works like a dream. Only wish there were narrower versions available for those hard to reach places.
I wound up getting one purely as a wishful purchase and I'm honestly content with it. it's been great tbh
This has been my only issue as well. I picked up a Godhand Kamaboko file for those small pieces and tight spaces - but that's another expensive file.
Just bought my first Gundam because of you and your vids. Keep up the great work bud
Kudos on going the extra mile to help us understand the differences. 👊👊
Too many people have told me that they're the same, and it's hard to show the difference between the two without evidence!
Literally just bought the Amazon glass file. Thanks for the review bro!
No problem 👍
nice vid, Ive been watching your videos cuz i got into gunpla and i think youre really good at reviewing you deserve more subs and likes
Thank you, I appreciate it! A comment and like help TH-cam promote it to other people, so thanks for the help! 🙂
Very insightful, thanks for the vid!
Take my sub! Pretty new to gunpla, started just this October, and your video really helped me understand how sanding and all works. Really considering buying a gunprimer set thanks to your review. Merry Christmas!
Glad that I could help! In my personal opinion, I would just get the Raser/Raser+ by itself instead of the whole set. The Balancer blocks are pretty cheap on their own as well, or you could use any nail buffing block as a substitute. But I hardly find the denim sheets useful, so save the money where you can!
@@aMillaGunpla alright sure! thanks man
Ok, insta sub when you started showing those paper cutouts. that's a whole other level of commitment.
I have the cheap one, and with some melanine sponge and hobby knife the results are really nice! Price is a huge factor for me, as I live in Brazil, where the taxes (when applied) are over 60% the price of a product + shipping.
If the cheaper one works for you, that's a good thing! More money for Gunpla!
@Augusto Souza do you speak portuguese?
Se sim, eu conheço um canal aqui que chama Febre Gundam, que eu vejo de vez em quando, e sei que tem um grupo no Reddit de Gunpla mas aí não sei se é movimentado
@Augusto Souza imagina! mas assim, eu acho que o conteúdo gringo ainda acaba sendo melhor, por eles terem mais acesso aos kits que a gente, então eu acabo sempre acompanhando eles. O que o Febre Gundam fala de uma forma mais relevante é sobre importação e tals.
This is when you really understand what you do 🔥
Nice. Great explanation.
Man, probably the coolest video on YT I've seen in a while. Thanks! #Sciencerocks!
Thank you for that. I was eyeing one of the cheap files and asking myself if the Raser one was that worth
I genuinely love my cheap glass files. The "mild" cutting action leaves more room for my ADHD self, AND I can modify them to a softer/safer cutting action and surface without feeling guilty. For example, sometimes i'll accidentally round corners due to overhang, so to prevent that have 3 that are sealed up with super glue but have a thin nub-sized strip left on an edge or dead-center. This lets me cut the nub without having to worry about damaging the rest of the part due to misperception or me just being an idiot in a rush. I'll probably buy the raser when i get into MG kits, but i suspect by then i will have little use.
awesome video, thanks for this
great explanation!
I have the Gunprimer gate remover set, and I lOVE it! If I make a mistake with the file, the polishing stick that it comes with, erases my mistakes easily.
I love it too! The only thing I don’t really find a use for is the denim patches… plus, I have plenty of old jeans I could repurpose!
I have the glass file and works pretty fine. Sometimes I dip it in water and works super fine indeed...
If the regular glass file works for you, then that’s good, you get to spend that extra money on more kits then! 😂
Yea i thin it works better with water kinda like a whetstone
Thank you so much for the quality of your review. I can't tell you how many I saw that were just people filing their nails aggressively without talking and loud generic music 😭 like, your nails look nice, but you're giving me 0 information. I need a scientific approach to every product I buy and you helped!
Feel free to look into bona-fide beauty, they have a nano file too! Only if you want to though
I keep missing the streams hopefully I can be on the next one.
Btw like the shirt
Thanks! I should be able to stream earlier for the next few weeks, hope to catch you then!
Funny enough, I've been using the one glass file that doesn't count in this review for almost a year now. Sounds like I've been going about it wrong and could use the upgrade.
If it works, it works! Ultimately the Raser, in my opinion, is a little bit more of a timesaver. If you’re cranking out kits, it might be worth your while, but that’s if time is important to you when building
Hi guys I'm new to gunpla
Serious question:
whats the point when you can still see the nubmark afterwards?
I sand it down with 1k , 1.5k, 2k and 2.5k after cutting and it's almost invisible
Thank you !
the key difference between generic files is whether the cutting surface is circular or linear. the linear patterns one only cut in one direction and produces scratches. just be careful that not all generic files are the same
So with raser Glasa file do you not need to worry about different grits? Bcuz I have infini sanding sticks from 400-5000
Hey! I actually had the same complaint about not being able to see through the RASER, but it turns out the top is just a sticker. Peel that off and it’s crystal clear!
But it's so comfy as a grip! Lol, I happen to have 2 Raser+'s now, so maybe I'll try it someday
@@aMillaGunpla Or maybe cut it halfway
First time here and god forsaken i love the intro
Glad you like it! You're one of the few to comment on it haha
From now on, I'll call you sensei since I really like how you explain things like my professor did when I was in college who I used to call sensei as well. 😂
Hahaha, well I did used to want to be a teacher... glad I could explain well!
i accidentally drop my raser 1.5 on the floor and it shattered to pieces :(
this video made me buy the RASER
Great explanation!
Glad you think so!
Great Video! How long can use the Raser till I have to get a new one
Thank you! Honestly, I don't think anyone's owned one long enough to know the answer! I use mine on 90% of the kits I build and still don't notice any decrease in performance
but why have such big nubs tho ? why not flush cut with a godhand ? or any single blade nipper and then clean off with a glass file much faster
Hah, i bought the sanding stick type glass file and thought all glass files were like that. i had also ordered the gunprimer gate eraser kit but ended up never using it and giving it away cause i figured it was just a bunch of sanding sticks like i already have.
Oh no! If you get the chance again, I would just get the Raser by itself. The buffing block in the kit is nice, but the Recover cloth doesn’t seem to do much for me.
Very insightful, but also where did you get the shirt?
It's from the Gundam x UNIQLO collab!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
so it doesnt matter which raser?
hi, could you make a comparison with dspiae leviathan's ceramic file? this has a similar price to the gunprimer raser, ty for the video (:
I don't have the Leviathan file yet, but I am interested in getting it! When I do get it, I'll make sure to do a comparison.
@@aMillaGunpla ty, bro
I'd very well be interested in this too.
Does the nano file and the raser file gets worn out as well like the traditional files? Thank you!
I’ve been using mine for a while now. If they do wear out, it’s definitely way slower than sanding sticks!
@@aMillaGunpla cool! Bought 10pcs of cheap file since it's less than a dollar here.. i think i might cancel that and just buy 5pcs. Hehe. Thanks brother!
Honestly id be willing to spend 25 for the raser, it's just I love in Canada, and I ain't willing to spend an extra 25 just on shipping. 🤷♂️ guess I'll stick with my generic glass file
i just build this last night
do glass files get duller? like u have to replace them as well?
I've had 2 that I use pretty regularly for at least 1.5 years now, and I don't see them needed replacing any time soon
Plamo tech sanding science 💯💯💯
@aMilla which do you suggest getting, raser+ or the 1.5?
I find myself using the Raser+ because it's stronger and fits my (big) hands better. But I do feel that the Raser 1.5 is more versatile because it can fit in a few places the Raser+ can't. In the end, it's personal preference and you can't go wrong with either!
@@aMillaGunpla ah ok but are the cutting power between the 2 the same?
I would say it’s close enough to not make a major difference. The Raser+ does handle thicker nubs a little better though
I wish I bouth the 1.5 instead of the + its way too wide for some areas
Yeah, each of them have their pros and cons. I like the Raser+ because it's easier for me to hold, the Raser 1.5 (now called the Raser Origin) will fit in some areas the Raser+ can't, but for the spots it can't fit in, I just use a hobby knife
It's sold out!
Wait a minute but doesn't the amazon have bigger holes? Then it should turn out the other way around, that the Amazon glass file should remove more plastic...
The circles aren’t holes, the important part is the space between the circles!
@@aMillaGunpla Oh I get it now, thanks!
if i have the spn 120 god hand would i need this ??
I don't see why you would, if you're already satisfied with the cuts you get with the GodHands 🙂
nice
but how long the Raser last ?
From my experience, it does not wear out. It might not last forever, but it's been a few years for me with no performance reduction
@@aMillaGunpla sounds perfect for a builder who build once a while lol
Alright but where can i get that generic one pls
Hey Javier, great point! I've just added some links to the description of the video to where you can find these files.
@@aMillaGunpla hell yeah awesome thanks
Hey instead of buying a cheap amazon one, buy dspiae’s glass files. They’re better for the same price.
Yup! I tried the Siren after making this video and made a review for it 🙂
How do you typically clean off the Raser? Just bought one myself!
I'll typically use an old toothbrush to brush out the dust, works especially well with water, too! I've had others tell me they use masking tape to pull the dust out as well
My Gunprimer raser broke in 1 fall. Shit is not wortth the money if it breaks that easily
comment to appease the algorithm
Lol much appreciated!
offhand if the raser gate remover/raser dull what's the best method to resharpen them to work again?
It’s very unlikely that it would dull, I would try cleaning it with an old toothbrush under some water. There may be some plastic dust stuck in the crevices
@@aMillaGunpla with warm or cold water off hand?
Either or should be fine
i fucks with you and your channel
I dropped mine in the floor and it shattered to pieces 💀
Oh no, that's unfortunate ☹
ayo same shirt
It's a good one!
@@aMillaGunpla there is gundam shirts in uniqlo in india but no gunpla its sad and on top of that aliexpress is banned so big time depresso
i bought my generic nano glass file for only .6 dollar
Even better deal!
You deserve more subscriber 😑😑😑 dont know what the fuck is going on!!!!! TH-cam must boost you
Appreciate the compliment! Yeah, TH-cam’s algorithm is pretty random, but commenting and liking the vid helps, so thank you!
Glass files are stupid, make more shinier than the rest of the parts..
