Instructions for use

Step 1. File the nail

• Before the first application, file down the infected areas of nail, including the nail surface, as much as possible using the nail file provided

CAUTION

• Do not use nail files used for infected nails on healthy nails, otherwise you may spread the infection.
• To prevent the spread of infection, take care that no one else uses the files from your kit

Step 2. Clean the nail

• Use one of the swabs provided to clean the nail surface
• Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each affected nail

Step 3. Take some lacquer from the bottle

• Dip the applicator into the bottle of nail lacquer
• The lacquer must not be wiped off on the edge of the bottle before it is applied

Step 4. Apply the lacquer

• Apply the nail lacquer evenly over the entire surface of the nail
• Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each affected nail

Step 5. Allow to dry

• Let the treated nail(s) dry for approximately 3 minutes
• Wait at least 10 minutes before applying cosmetic nail varnish

Step 6. Clean the applicator

• The applicator provided is re-usable
• However, it is important to clean it thoroughly after completing each treatment procedure, using the same swab you used for nail cleansing
• Avoid touching newly treated nails with the swab
• Close the nail lacquer bottle tightly
• Dispose of the swab carefully as it is inflammable
• Before using AM LAQER 5% again, first remove the old lacquer and any nail varnish from your nails using a swab, then file down the nails again if necessary
• When dry the nail lacquer is unaffected by soap and water, so you may wash your hands and feet as normal
• If you need to use chemicals such as paint thinners or white spirit, rubber or other impermeable (waterproof) gloves should be worn to protect the lacquer on your fingernails
• It is important to carry on using AM LAQER 5% until the infection has cleared and healthy nails have grown back. This usually takes 6 months for finger nails and 9 to 12 months for toe nails
