Super Rubber Base Gel

Shills Professional Super Rubber Base Gel is a flexible, strengthening base gel designed to create a smooth and supportive foundation between the properly prepared natural nail and subsequent compatible gel products. Featuring a thicker, more elastic consistency than a conventional thin base coat, it provides nail technicians with greater control when reinforcing natural nails, improving surface uniformity, and preparing the nail for professional gel polish and nail-art applications.

As a base gel, its primary role is to prepare and support the manicure before color or finishing products are applied. It is not a top coat. Super Rubber Base Gel is applied during the foundation stage of the gel manicure to create an even, flexible base for compatible gel colors and other nail products.

The rubberized gel consistency offers a useful combination of flexibility and reinforcement, making it particularly suitable for natural nails that benefit from additional support during a gel manicure. Rather than creating an excessively rigid layer, the flexible character is designed to work as a supportive base while maintaining a natural-feeling application.

Its thicker consistency also gives technicians greater control over minor surface irregularities. The product can be carefully distributed across the nail plate to create a smoother-looking foundation before gel color is applied. This is particularly helpful when working with nails that have slight unevenness or require additional structure beyond what a very thin traditional base coat can provide.

Super Rubber Base Gel can also be incorporated into structured manicure techniques where controlled product placement and additional reinforcement are required. Depending on the nail condition and professional technique, the product can be applied in controlled layers to refine the nail profile while maintaining a neat cuticle area and balanced overall appearance.

Suitable for professional nail technicians, salons, nail artists, beauty academies, and experienced gel manicure users, Super Rubber Base Gel provides a versatile foundation for creating smooth, reinforced, and professionally finished gel manicures.

Step 1 – Prepare the Natural Nails

Begin with clean, dry nails.

Gently push back the cuticles and remove non-living tissue from the nail plate. Shape the natural free edge according to the desired manicure.

Step 2 – Gently Prepare the Nail Surface

Using an appropriate professional buffer, lightly remove surface shine where required by the gel system.

Avoid excessive filing or unnecessarily thinning the natural nail.

Thoroughly remove all resulting nail dust.

Step 3 – Clean and Dehydrate

Clean the nail plate according to your professional nail-preparation procedure.

Apply compatible dehydrator or primer where required by the gel system being used.

Allow preparation products to perform according to their individual instructions.

Step 4 – Apply a Thin Base Layer

Apply a controlled, thin layer of Super Rubber Base Gel over the natural nail.

Work carefully around the cuticle and sidewalls without allowing uncured product to touch the skin.

Step 5 – Add Reinforcement if Required

If additional leveling or reinforcement is required, place a controlled amount of product onto the nail.

Guide the gel gently across the surface using the application brush.

Avoid creating unnecessary bulk.

Step 6 – Check the Surface

Before curing, inspect the nail from the top and side.

Make sure the gel is distributed evenly and has not flooded the cuticle or sidewalls.

Remove any uncured gel that has contacted the surrounding skin.

Step 7 – Cure

Cure under a compatible professional UV/LED nail lamp according to the recommended curing requirements for the product and lamp being used.

Keep the hand properly positioned during the complete curing cycle.

Step 8 – Apply Gel Color

Once the base has been properly cured, apply the desired compatible gel polish.

Use thin, controlled layers and cure each color layer according to its individual instructions.

Step 9 – Create Nail Art

If desired, add compatible French designs, chrome, cat-eye effects, glitter, stamping, decals, rhinestones, or other decorative nail-art products.

Step 10 – Apply Top Coat

Finish the manicure with a compatible top coat.

Cure according to the top coat instructions to complete the gel manicure.
