MILADY NAIL TECHNOLOGY UPDATED
SCRIPT 2026 PRACTICE SOLUTIONS
GRADED A+
● Polymerization. Answer: Polymer liquid made from special chemical
reaction called:
● Methacrylates. Answer: Acrylic enhancement systems belong to this
branch of the acrylic family
● MMA (methyl methacrylate). Answer: Monomer liquid that is not
recommended for use on nails
● Catalysts. Answer: Additives designed to speed up chemical reactions
● Polymerization. Answer: Another word for curing or hardening
● Coarse grit file. Answer: 100 grit or lower
● Medium grit file. Answer: 150-180 grit
● Fine grit file or buffer. Answer: 240 grit or higher
, ● Shiner. Answer: Buffer used to create high shine on natural nail or nail
enhancement
● ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene). Answer: Nail tips commonly
made from this
● Acrylic maintenance must be performed every. Answer: 2-3 weeks
● Apex (arch). Answer: Area of the nail with the most strength
● Apex. Answer: Usually oval shaped and located in the center of the
nail
● Stress area. Answer: Where the natural nail grows beyond the finger
and becomes free edge
● Sidewall. Answer: Area on side of nail plate that grows free of natural
attachment to nail fold and where extension leaves natural nail
● Oligomer. Answer: Short chain of monomers not long enough to be
considered a polymer and often called a prepolymer
