Every day is a school day which offers a new learning opportunity, and that’s how it should be! never stop learning. I consider that I know and understand quite a bit about UV gels but I learned something new the other day about UV gel thickness.
En nuestro breve curso sobre gel UV we explain how if the gel coating is too thick it can cause over curing (heat spikes) and heavily pigmented can block the UV and cause under curing, but what I’d didn’t know is that a thick coat can also cause the lower part of the coating to be under cured as the UV cannot penetrate that deep.
El papel crítico del grosor del gel UV en la seguridad y eficacia de la aplicación
Las instrucciones siempre han sido aplicar capas finas por las siguientes razones:
- curado excesivo que puede quemar el lecho ungueal del cliente
- under curing if pigments are in the gel
- y ahora, los niveles más bajos no se curan, lo que puede provocar la lixiviación durante el desgaste o la retirada.
