light cured gels
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Light cured gel enhancements rely on ingredients from the----- family | monomer liquid and polymer powder |
| Light cured gels contain-----, which are liquids | monomers |
| urethane acrylate and urethane methacrylates are used in making | UV gels |
| what step makes light cured gel nail enhancements different from all other nail enhancements | curing |
| applying gel over the entire surface of the nail is called the | one color method |
| gels that are used to enhance the thickness of other gels are | self-leveling gels |
| UV gels cure with a tacky surface called an | inhibition layer |
| light cured gel product is held and spread with | flat bristles |
| what product is used to improve adhesion of UV gels to the natural nail plate | UV gel primer |
| gel nails are contoured using a------abrasive | medium/fine |
| the measure of how much electricity a UV or LED bulb consumes is called | wattage |
| what is the most common UV bulb on the market | 9- watt |
| Light cured gel nail enhancements are customarily maintained----weeks after the initial application | two |
| Gels that are removed fairly easily with acetone are | soft UV gels |
| UV and LED gel nail enhancements can be removed by reducing thickness w/ a medium abrasive, soaking in acetone or product remover, and | gently scraping w/ a wooden pusher |
| An -----is a short chain of monomer liquids that is often thick, sticky, and gel-like and is not long enough to be considered a polymer | oligomer |
| what is the most common UV bulb on the market | 9-watt |
| Light cured gels are usually packaged in opaque pots or | squeeze tubes |
| the tacky surface left on the nail after a UV or LED gel has cured is called the | inhibition |
| a------ is recommended to refine the surface contour for UV or LED gel nails | medium or fine abrasive |
| viscosity is the measurement of the ------of a liquid and how the fluid flows | thickness |
| which of these products is used to increase adhesion of UV or LED gels to the natural nail plate | bonding gel |
| introducing air into the gel as you apply it to the fingernail will | reduce the strength of the cured gel |
| which of these is a thick-viscosity resin that allows the cosmetologist to build an arch and curve into the fingernail | building gel |
| a chemical called ---- initiates the polymerization reaction | a photoinitiator |
| when gel polish is finished curing, a ------can be applied over it to create a high, lustrous shine | gloss gel |
| which of these UV or LED gels cannot be removed w/ a solvent | Hard LED and UV gels |
| which type of gel is also known as soakable gel | Soft UV and LED gel |
| light cured gels | can be easy to maintain |
| a very thin-viscosity gel that is used as an alternative to traditional nail lacquers is | a gel polish |
| there are many names for glossing gels, but they do not include which of the following | layer gel |
| if a light unit has four bulbs in it, and each bulb is 9-watts, then the lamp is called a ---- lamp | 36- watt (9x4=36) |
| different bulbs produce greatly differing amounts of UV and LED light. this is referred to as the UV and LED bulb intensity or | concentration |
| after the nail plate is properly prepared for a light cured gel application, each layer of products applied to the natural nail, nail tip, or form and requires exposure to a UV or LED source to | cure or harden |
| gel polish | does not dry the same as laquers |
| the amount of colored pigment concentration in a gel is called | opacity |
| which product removes surface moisture and tiny amounts of oil left on the natural nail plate | nail dehydrator |
| if a client has flat fingernails, which type of product would be recommended | building gel |
| during a gel procedure, keep the brush and open gel containers away from sunlight, gel lamps, and | full-spectrum table lamps |
| most LED lamps cure gel about four times faster than UV lamps. what do the letters LED represent | light emitting diodes |
