Here is a reply given by geeg some time ago. I was going to post a link to the thread, but it was one of those that got a bit ugly and some rather sily remarks and lack of facts were posted!!!! So here are the FACTS!
GLUE is an old-fashioned and non-professional term to use if you are a professional nail technician. Glue is made from animal proteins and not used in the nail industry at all.
Ethylcynoacrylate adhesives are what we use in the nail industry and they are chemical adhesives and do not contain any animal products.
EC Resins are also Ethylcynoacrylate but are not exactly the same formulation as adhesives although they can be used interchangeably if wanted. Resins have added chemicals that increase the flexibility of the product. They are not the same but 'almost'.
