Pat Gels vs Regular Gels: What Experienced Nail Techs Actually Need to Know

Most Pat Gel comparison videos are made for beginners. This one isn't. In this video I'm breaking down the REAL differences between Pat Gels and regular builder gels — viscosity, cure behavior, adhesion mechanics, and what that actually means for your technique, your consistency, and what you're able to charge. If you've been doing nails for years and still feel like Pat Gel behaves differently than you expect — this video is for you. 🛍️ PRODUCTS USED IN THIS VIDEO 💜 Chaun Legend Gel Link → https://amzn.to/4eEZTa7 💜 DND Sunset Suede → https://amzn.to/3OXYotk 💜 DND Mother of Pearl → https://amzn.to/3PftNav 🛒 All my favorite Pat Gel pallets in one place → https://www.amazon.com/shop/glamnailz... 💡 Lamp used in this video → https://onail.com/chloe10389664 💜Gelish Creme Gels https://amzn.to/4dEPNUL 📺 THIS IS VIDEO 1 OF MY PAT GEL SERIES — watch the full series here: ▶ Video 2: Using Pat Gels WITH Airbrush Stencils →    • Pat Gel + Airbrush Stencils = Perfect Fren...   ▶ Video 3: Pat Gels + Stamping →    • Pat Gels + Stamping Plates — The Technique...   ▶ Video 4: Chrome Pat Gels, Molds & Where to Get the Good Ones →    • Silicone Nail Molds + Pat Gel — The 3D Tec...   🔔 Subscribe for weekly nail tech education, airbrush tutorials, and real talk about building a nail business that actually pays you. 📌 FIND ME HERE Instagram → @glamnailz210 Shop my stencils & courses → glamgoodiez.com This description contains affiliate links.
