F.O.X. Builder Gel Thixotropic #001,15 ml

Builder Gel Thixotropic - professional modeling three-phase gel in white with an "adaptive consistency" effect. Thanks to thixotropic technology, the material remains stable at rest but becomes more fluid during brush work. This provides maximum control over material placement and allows creating perfect architecture without flooding.

The gel combines high strength, excellent self-leveling, and shape stability, making it a universal solution for strengthening natural nails, modeling, and correction of any length.

Product benefits:

• Thixotropic formula with an "adaptive consistency" effect. 
• Suitable for work in any techniques.
• Full control over the material during placement.
• Easy self-leveling.
• Allows working with several nails simultaneously.
• Clearly holds the given architecture and apex.
• High mechanical strength after polymerization.
• Suitable for short, medium, and long nails.
• Holds the height of sidewalls when performing encapsulating French.
• Saves master's time and material consumption.
• Comfortable to work with for both beginners and experienced masters.

Purpose:

• strengthening natural nails;
• sculpting on bottom forms;
• working with top forms;
• extending corners;
• correction of artificial nails.

Thixotropy is the property of a material to temporarily decrease viscosity under mechanical influence. In simple words: in the jar, the gel appears thick and stable, but during brush work it becomes more fluid and easily distributes over the nail plate. When movement stops, the material regains its density and retains the created shape. That is why thixotropic gels do not run and allow the master to fully control material placement.

Application technique:

1. Prepare the nail plate
2. Apply a thin layer of F.O.X Scotch Base or Air Base — polymerize in UV/LED lamp for 60 sec
3. Using a brush, apply Builder Gel Thixotropic, polymerize for 60–120 sec depending on layer thickness
4. Remove the sticky layer with Gel Cleanser, perform filing
5. Cover with any F.O.X top coat — polymerize for 60 sec

On lower forms:

4. Place the forms for modeling and form a thin base with gel. Polymerize in a UV lamp 36W — 1 min., LED/UV lamp 36/48W — 30 seconds.
5. Remove the forms and build the nail architecture to the required length with gel. Polymerize in a UV lamp 36W — 2-3 min., LED/UV lamp 36/48W — 2-4 min., depending on the density of the applied layer.
6. Remove the sticky layer and file. The nail is ready for coating with a gel finish or top coat from F.O.X.

RESULT
Perfectly sculpted nails with correct architecture, a strong frame, and a smooth surface. Minimal filing, maximum control, and comfortable work without flooding.
