BRIEF INTRODUCTION
It is vital to sterilize metal implements, sanitize wooden tools, disinfect
hand and foot spa machines as well as environmental surfaces before and after
each use. Contaminated tools can cause bacterial and fungal infections that
are unsightly, painful, and sometimes, fatal. There are several methods of
cleaning and sterilization. Do a rapid cleaning after each nail care service and
deep-clean monthly to keep tools safe and useful all the time.

5 Ways to Keep Tools and Equipment

Safe and Functional.
1. Sterilize metal implements after each use in a hospital-grade
disinfectant that is bactericidal, virucidal, and fungicidal. This
disinfectant can be found in beauty supply stores. Immerse the tools in
the disinfectant for 10 minutes.

2. Disinfect foot basins after each use with a bleach solution. Make a 1-to-
10 solution by mixing one part bleach with 10 parts water. Using gloves,
rinse the basin with the solution to disinfect. If necessary, scrub with a
detergent to remove any dirt or debris.

3. Use a boiling method of sterilization once a month to disinfect all metal

implements. Designate one pot for sterilization to prevent cross-
contamination with food.
Submerge the tools in boiling water for 10 minutes. Drain the tools and
allow them to dry.

4. Store sterilized metal implements in an airtight, zipper-sealed bag to

keep them from being exposed to dirt and bacteria. Be sure tools are
completely dry before storing them. If waiting more than a couple of
weeks before the next nail care service, sterilize the tools again before
use.

5. Inspect tools and equipment regularly to identify defective ones for

repair, replacement, or condemnation.
