SOFT GEL TIP PREPARATION:

1. Choose the right tip size for the nail. The tip should cover the entire nail bed from side to side. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger size and file the tip to fit.
2. Apply a thin layer of IBD PowerBond to the inside of the Soft Gel Tip. Apply only along the length of the natural nail.
