The chemical reaction that creates polymers includes all but which one of the following? During the production of polymer powder, the powder forms into tiny ____ beads of slightly varying sizes. Polymer powders are usually blended with ___________ to create a wide range of shades from white to jet black. A special additive designed to speed up chemical reactions is: An initiator is found in: Which of the following is a common initiator? To create a dry bead, you combine: The amount of monomer liquid and polymer powder used to create a bead is called the: In general, ____ beads are the ideal mix ratio for working with monomer liquids and polymer powders. What is the recommended method for disposing of used monomer liquid that has been removed from the original container? Nail dehydrator: Nail dehydrator should be applied liberally: When applying primer, it is recommended that you: It is recommended that you use a ____ buffer for finish filing, refining, and buffing. Nail forms are not commonly made of: The monomer liquid and polymer powder are each poured into a special holder called a: A ________ file or buffer is used to thin enhancement product to prepare the enhancement for a refill or rebalance. Primers and liquids should be stored in a covered container in a: The process of filling a damaged, broken, lifted, or cracked monomer liquid and polymer powder nail enhancement with additional monomer liquid and polymer powder is called: Compared to standard monomer liquid and polymer powder products, odorless products: How is the inhibition layer removed? The ____ is the area of the nail enhancement with the most strength.
