hi
it may not apply to all systems, but the reason that creative don't recommend the use of products that r put into the monomer to either, speed up set/reduce smell etc, is that is will cause service breakdown. ie there will b possible problems with cracking/lifting etc.
monomer is formulated to do a job.ie join up with polymer molecules to make a solid that we call nails!
there r reccomendations on how to keep the smell down while you r working
1. replace the lid on your monomer & dappen dish as soon as u finish with it.
2. do not wipe your brush excessively on your paper towel .
3. discard any tissue with monomer on it very frequently into a metal bin with a lid.
4. change the bin liner at least once (twice if v.busy) a day.
work smart, & you will notice a considerable difference in the strength of the smell.
also, you must source a suitable extraction system to eliminate the dust in your breathing zone. this will reduce the smell down to almost nothing.
make sure that u understand that the dust in your envoirment in much more harmful to you than the small amount of monomer vapours that will b present in your salon.
