1. Before applying gel polish, the cuticle and pterygium (a thin layer of cuticle that grows directly to the nail plate) should be carefully moved and removed. The material applied to the cuticle or pterygium will necessarily exfoliate.
2. It is necessary to remove the shine with a buff or grinder from the entire surface of the nail plate, paying special attention to the area near the cuticle and the free edge of the nail. Nails must be filed, even if they do not require length correction.
3. It is imperative that you degrease the nail plate with a Kodi Nail Fresher degreaser. When degreasing, it is necessary to apply the product on a lint-free cloth and carefully wipe the nail plate, paying particular attention to the areas near the side rollers and the cuticle. Small volumes of degreasers can be with a brush. In this case, you must first remove the dust from the nail with a lint-free cloth or a brush for manicure, and then apply a degreaser and let it dry for a few seconds.
4. After degreasing, apply the Kodi Professional Ultrabond (acid-free primer) with a thin layer and let it dry for about 30 seconds. This will enhance the adhesion of the material to the nail plate.
5. Apply the Kodi Professional Rubber Base Gel base in a thin layer, preventing leakage on the cuticle and side rollers, and seal the nail section by painting it with a brush.
6. Apply a thin layer of Kodi Professional gel polish to the base with a thin layer, preventing leakage on the cuticle and side rollers, and seal the nail section by painting it with a brush.
7. Apply a thin coat of Kodi Professional Rubber Top Gel, always covering the entire surface of the nail plate. There should be no places not covered by the finish.
8. Remove the sticky layer by wiping each nail with a lint-free cloth moistened with Kodi Cleanser sticky layer liquid.
