Advanced Nail Techniques Part 2

Resin and polymer powder based systems in which the resin absorbs the powder to create a hard coating is called:

• Nail wrapping

• Gel systems

• Resin systems

• dip systems

A treatment that applies a nail-size layer of fabric or paper with resin is:

• Acrylic overlay
• Paper mache wrap
• Paper wrapping

• Nail wrapping

Wraps that give a smooth appearance to the nail and becomes transparent when resin is applied are:

• Paper wraps
• fiberglass wraps

• Silk wraps
• Acrylic wraps

Match the following:

• resin

• Product applied to improve adhesion and chemically bond the product

• primer

• Additives that speed up chemical reactions to help control curing or setting time

• catalysts

• Product that accelerates the curing of resins and adhesives

• activator

• The type of glue applied with fabric wraps

The improper use of activator can cause:

• a nail infection

• Reduced reaction time
• damage to the nail wrap

• a heat spike and damage to the nail bed

• 1
• 3-4

• 2-3

• all 5

• Photoinitiator

Which term refers to one unit?

• catalyst

• oligomer

• polymer

• monomer

Acrylic nails are created by combining:

• ABS plastic and resin

• liquid monomer and powder polymer
• polymer and primer

• gel and dip powder

What type of monomer is not legal in Ohio due to complaints of onycholysis and skin irritation?

• Methyl Methacrylate (MMA)
• Ethlyl Methacrylate

• Polygel
• Cyanoacrylate
