Reface earns its place by consolidating measurement, cleanup, reference editing, and retopology into a single Blender add-on. Version 2.0 expanded it from a compact alignment tool into a full precision modeling toolkit, and 2.0.4 brought a major update to Corner Guided Grid Refill.
Reface is a precision modeling add-on for Blender that consolidates mesh cleanup, CAD-style measurement, reference-based editing, retopology helpers, viewport overlays, and object isolation. It lets you inspect geometry, set exact lengths and angles, rebuild circular loops, clean boolean cuts, create reference planes, align selections, and repair hard-surface meshes without constantly jumping between disconnected tools.
The ReFace ViewMode overlay reads edge lengths, angles, radii, face areas, normals, loop perimeters, and min/max edge indicators in the viewport. CAD editing lets you drag selected edge lengths, adjust angles through interactive handles, and set circular loop radius from center or active vertex workflows, with exact input tools available for precise values. Cleanup and retopology helpers cover Boolean Clean Up, Corner Guided Grid Refill, Adjust Circle, and Match Active Circle.
Reference workflows store reference edges or planes so you can align, project, mirror, and rebuild geometry from stable world-space references. ReFace 2.0 grew from a compact alignment tool into a full precision modeling and mesh cleanup toolkit, and version 2.0.4 delivered a major update to Corner Guided Grid Refill for larger and more complex patch retopology.
Reface is best for hard-surface modeling, mesh cleanup, CAD-style precision editing, and patch retopology in Blender.
Reface is completely free to download and use.
Reface opens through several access points in Blender. The main popup menu is bound to Ctrl + Shift + V, and its tools also live in the Sidebar N Panel under a ReFace tab. Reface adds entries to the Object and Edit context menus for quick access, and object isolation is available via / or Numpad /, which isolates the active collection in the view layer. Locked objects can be managed in local mode.
Reface's Corner Guided Grid Refill is one of the biggest additions in ReFace 2.0, built for rebuilding messy face islands into cleaner grid-based topology. Version 2.0.3 extended it to work on continuous loops, and 2.0.4 introduced a major update expanding the operator for larger and more complex patch retopology workflows. It can maintain edge count from nearby topology and handle shapes that are not rectangular when the right constraints are defined. A demo video is available.
Reface is listed as free in this catalog, so you can add it to your Blender setup without a purchase here. Licensing and distribution terms can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current details before you rely on it for a project. That page is also the place to confirm which download provides access to the latest 2.0 features.
Reface provides a ViewMode measurement overlay that displays geometry data directly in the Blender viewport, including edge lengths, angles, circle radii, face areas, normals, loop perimeters, and min/max edge indicators. It includes Show All, Drag Handles, and Face Info toggles, along with quick HUD actions for length, angle, radius, references, and clearing references. This lets you inspect geometry without constantly jumping between disconnected tools.
Reface Isolate handles object isolation in Blender through the / or Numpad / shortcut, which isolates the active collection in the view layer. The feature supports protected objects and protected collections, and locked objects can be managed in local mode. This keeps the chosen geometry in view while you work on hard-surface cleanup and precision edits across the active collection.
