POLYTEK Polymer Gel: The next generation
- 3D Matrix Linking Technology
- Stronger than gels even for hard customers!
- More flexible than acrylics
- Easy to file
- HEMA-free
- No odour
- Flexible working time – cure POLYTEK in the UV/LED lamp
- Reduced refill working time between 15 to 20 minutes
- Idea for sculpting extensions and use with dual-forms
POLYTEK is especially effective for customers who work hard with their hands or have “problem” nails and need a stronger product with excellent adhesion to the natural nail. POLYTEK's higher viscosity makes it a pleasure to sculpt extensions and advanced nail shapes. POLYTEK is compatible with dual-forms.
HEMA-free
Although POLYTEK is not hypoallergenic, it is HEMA-free. This makes POLYTEK especially useful as an alternative to HEMA-based acrylic monomer systems.
