Polisher 5.5/16 mm

Pedicure and manicure polisher is a soft-coated cutter. Its main function is the final treatment of the nail plate and skin after a manicure or pedicure.
After using the polisher, the nail becomes shiny and the skin becomes soft and velvety.

Tips on the use of nozzles are given only as a recommendation.

Silicone polishers are made of silicone carbide, which is a synthetic material with abrasive properties.

Types
Silicone cutters vary in hardness, shape and size.
The color of the cutter indicates the degree of hardness:

* Fine (yellow color) - polishing the surface of a natural nail or gel-lacquer.
* Medium (grey) - universal nozzle for most types of treatment.
* Rough (green) - polishing of foot skin, including cracked heels, calluses; work with artificial nails (gel or acrylic).
Dimensions of nozzles and their main purpose:

* 5-7 mm - work with nail plate.
* 7-10 mm - universal nozzle.
* 10-15 mm - work with skin of feet.

It is important to note that not only the diameter of cutters is given in the names of products, but also the length of working part, the bigger is the area for treatment.

Application
Silicone polishers are mainly used at low speed. Recommended speed 5-7 thousand rpm.
Maximum speed 15k/min.

Important: Silicone bits get hot during use.
To reduce heat build-up in the cutter, lower the RPM and work in shorter cycles. Moisture can help reduce discomfort. Medium cutter wear time (1-2 months).

Sterilize
Silicone cutters can be sterilized at high temperatures - in an autoclave, dry oven. They must be cleaned of dust and particles of material beforehand (after working with artificial nails). The advantage of silicone is that it is easy to clean under running water and does not require brushes.
