I just picked up a rotary tool for around the house, but would like to use it to clean up minis also. Anyone have any suggestions on what bits to get?

Before you start, which one did you get?

4200.

None. A set of files will be much more useful to you, especially if you're working with plastic. A Dremel is going to grind down a plastic mini way too quickly to be useful

I have some Infiniti models that are difficult to clean the mold lines from, you still think a low rpm would still be too much?

Like the others have said, yeah, it's still too much. Just break down and get the files and a box of Xacto blades. It's a pain in the butt, but it's part of the hobby and you'll get used to it to the point that it just becomes a mechanical action on your part.

Thanks for everyone's input. I've got a file set and xacto knife and have done it the regular way, but like I said, I picked this up for use around the home, not specifically for minis. Not a big deal, just wondering.
