STICKY TAPE PRIMER

Sticky Tape – Extra Strength Acid-Free Primer

Professional Nail Adhesion Primer: For maximum adhesion support and prep reinforcement.

Recommended for experienced technicians managing advanced retention challenges.

Ideal for clients who need extra grip, extra retention, and a stronger foundation before product application.

Sticky Tape – Extra Strength Acid-Free Primer is a professional-use, solvent-based adhesion primer designed to improve product grip to the natural nail and support stronger long-term retention across professional nail systems.

This formula is designed to help create a high-adhesion bonding layer between the natural nail and your enhancement system, making it ideal for clients who need extra adhesion support, particularly in cases where lifting, moisture, oil breakthrough, or difficult retention may be a concern.

Unlike traditional acid primers, this formula is designed to provide strong adhesion support without aggressive acid etching, making it a more modern salon-friendly option for trained nail professionals who want stronger prep performance while maintaining control over the service.

Its fast-drying solvent system flashes off quickly to leave behind a thin adhesion-supporting layer that helps improve grip before product application.

Best For:

• Clients prone to lifting or poor retention.
• Nail services requiring stronger adhesion support.
• Use before gel systems, builder systems, overlays, structured manicures, and enhancement services.
• Clients with naturally oily nail plates.
• Technicians wanting a stronger prep step within a professional salon environment.
