How to use Hard BIAB™

Step 1 – Nail Prep- Sanitise both your and your client’s hands.- Gently push back the cuticles and remove dead skin cells using a tool like TGB’s ProPrep.- Shape the nail with a fine grit file such as the 220/40 Natural Nail File.- Lightly buff the surface using the TGB 100/180 buffer to remove shine.- Cleanse and dehydrate the nail plate using 100% pure acetone.

Step 2 – Base coat- For extra protection, apply a thin layer of HEMA-free Bond Base or Rubber Base.- Cure: 99 seconds in Low Heat Mode (e.g. with the TGB Light The Way Lamp).

Step 3 – First layer- Apply a thin layer of Hard BIAB™.- Cure: 99 seconds in Low Heat Mode.

Step 4 – Second layer / Build- Apply a medium bead and distribute from side to side, avoiding the cuticles.- Work on one nail at a time and flip the hand upside down to perfect the apex.- Cure: 99 seconds in Low Heat Mode.

Step 5 – Third layer (optional)- Repeat Step 4 for extra strength or length.- Cure: 99 seconds in Low Heat Mode.

Step 6 – Refining- Remove the inhibition layer with acetone or alcohol.- File (120/180 grit) and buff (100/180 grit) the nail into shape, focusing on the cuticle area and free edge.- Dust off and wipe clean with alcohol.

Step 7 – Topcoat- Finish with your favourite Extreme Shine Top Coat.- Cure: 60 seconds in the Light The Way Lamp.
