Do you file your edge

Yup those are the ones. I like using the bigger ones that nicholson makes. Those little one are for getting into those corners. BTW be careful when the files are new they tend to bite the film and tear it so go slowly at first. Once they're worn out they work like gravy. Are you planning to file on frameless or regular roll ups? If its the regular roll ups then on your pattern mark where the edge of the gasket and make a little slant cut. That way you dont have to file so far into the corner seals. Nobody is gonna notice it if you do it right. :crazy
