Atica Primer — nail prep for long wear

The Atica Primer category includes key prep products that improve adhesion before base/gel work: dehydration, pH balance and bonding support. This step often defines how clean and durable the manicure will be.

Pick your prep product

• Dehydrator: PrimeBond 15 ml removes moisture/oils and helps balance pH.
• Ultrabond with a tacky layer: Perfix 15 ml (gel-like texture) for stronger bonding on “problem nails”.
• Acid-free primer: FIX IT Ultrabond supports adhesion and helps prevent lifting; fast-drying, clear and odorless (as described on the product page).

How to use

• After manicure: lightly buff, remove dust, avoid touching the nail plate.
• Apply PrimeBond in a thin layer and wait ~20–30 seconds.
• If needed, apply an ultra-thin layer of Perfix or FIX IT.
• Continue with Atica Base Coats.

Nail tech tip: bonding products work best in a very thin layer — avoid over-applying.
