Nail Enhancements Quiz

What are nail enhancements based on?

• Monomer liquids and polymer powders

• Acrylic paints

• Gel polishes

• Nail stickers

What is the industry standard monomer liquid used in nail enhancements?

• Acrylic monomer liquid

• Odorless monomer liquid

• Ethyl methacrylate (EMA)

• Methyl methacrylate (MMA)

Why is MMA not recommended for use in nail enhancements?

What is polymerization?

• A chemical reaction that creates a long chain

• The process of applying polymer powder to the nail

• The removal of polymer powder from the nail

• The mixing of monomer liquid and polymer powder

What are catalysts in nail enhancements?

• Brushes used for application

• Pigments and colorants in polymer powder

• Special screens that sort polymer beads

• Additives that speed up chemical reactions

What is the ideal mix ratio for working with Oderless monomer liquids and polymer powders?

• Dry bead

• Wet bead

• Perfect bead

• Medium bead

What happens if too much powder is used in the bead mix ratio?

• The enhancement becomes brittle

• The enhancement becomes weak

• The enhancement cures incorrectly

• The enhancement discolors

What happens if you use too little powder?
