Ok cool! I don't mind tossing the brush. I just didn't want to
contaminate my gel.

Michelle,$if they lost the nail, and it had been gone for some time,
there is usually no fungus there. It is just hard skin.
If you feel that it is, then soak your brush in pure acetone for a
few minutes. Acetone WILL remove any "cooties.".
One thing to remember is that it is only the product that is
touching the nail-not the brush.
If you are that concerned, then string the gel on and buff it into
shape when it is cured.
I usually use acrylic to sculpt out my clients' toes. Again, clean
the brush with acetone.
If you use a nylon brush, you do not have to worry about "things"
creeping into it. The bristles are not porous.
Buenos dias,

What about cross contamination in the gel? The brush touches the
fungus then goes back in the gel. Ick!

I have 3 clients like you describe... over the years I have had
tons. I use dispoable files anyway so no worries of cross
contamination... They usually only last a month depending on how
much nail they have to anchor it to, but they are thrilled to have
"normal" feet and become regulars. That allows me to keep an eye on
them, and take them off and replace them if they do anything weird.
I was orginally against the idea, but my client said "What? Like if
it screws something up, they are gonna remove the toenail?!? LOL...
already happened..." so I gave it a shot. I have had no problems
over the years. Not one single problem. It can be a challenge to
build though... :)

Subject: NailTech:: prosthetic toe nail
Can I, and more to the point, should I build a prosthetic gel nail
over a nail that's mostly gone and the remainder is fungal? That
just seems like a bad idea to me, but never having done it before,
I want the advice of the experts.
Thanks
