DESCRIPTION
The product is a biocompatible, polymeric solution which forms a uniform film when applied to the nail. The product is dispersed in a non-cytotoxic solution which dries rapidly, adhering to the contours of the nail to form a flexible, waterproof barrier. The film will wear off naturally and must be reapplied as directed to be effective. The film is colorless, transparent and possesses good moisture vapor permeability.
