Best thing to d,contact the supplier again and ask their advice.

It isn't the powder that you need to change but the monomer! That is the part that reacts to UV not the powder.

And yes, ask your supplier for that info

I agree with what has already been said but I must just say the mother in me has been awoken here.

You should never be taking as many painkillers as that in a day, that is probably what is making you sick! I have had 2 major back surgeries in the last year and am, at present, housebound after a major op on my thigh to remove a large tumour. I am not on this amount of painkillers. They can actually give you a headache by taking too many, something I discovered when I had my last back surgery.

Please be careful my darling

and i have the uv light monomer and the powder , the monomer has no odour, just wanted to see if any other technician has used it xx

I've used this before and I really couldn't get on with it, very fiddly and takes ages! I can't remember how long you cure it for though, possible 3 minutes. But it doesn't smell bad. There are loads of company's that do a low odour system so if you don't like this system there are other options but I just really couldn't get on with it x

thanks jadee huni will give this a go and if not ill get the low odour and try to breathe through my mouth lol xx
