That's why a carbide barrel is a go-to for debulking acrylic and gel: you remove more product per pass with less pressure. The large barrel gives you more contact with the nail, so it works best on the top surface and the free edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant more visibility on small nail beds?
