REPAIR GEL CLEAR or REPAIR GEL COLOR: Which One Fits the Service?

REPAIR GEL CLEAR and REPAIR GEL COLOR both belong in LiNTO’s hard-gel work, but they offer different visual finishes and handling characteristics. Choose according to the planned structure and coverage rather than treating one as a universal upgrade.

When transparency is useful

REPAIR GEL CLEAR is a transparent hard gel intended for strengthening, repair, extension work, and modeling. Its thick consistency self-levels while offering control during placement.

A transparent gel can be useful where the service calls for a clear structure before color. The fact that it is clear does not change the need for an appropriate foundation and curing protocol.

When you want camouflage within the structure

REPAIR GEL COLOR offers camouflage shades for strengthening and modeling, including trained sculpting techniques. It has a medium-thick, self-leveling consistency and allows the structural layer to contribute to the final color.

Choose the shade using a swatch and the client’s preferred coverage. A thicker area can look different from a thin margin, so evaluate the complete result rather than the gel inside the jar.

Choose the foundation separately

• Assess the natural nail and any previous material.
• Select the foundation required by the LiNTO gel protocol.
• Plan the free-edge technique and structure.
• Use the compatible lamp and product-specific curing guidance.

Both products are more than alternatives to a colored base. They belong to hard-gel services, with the maintenance and removal decisions that those services require. Start with the service, then decide whether a transparent or camouflage finish makes it easier to achieve.
