Which of the following steps is NOT involved in the removal of fabric wraps?

When removing fabric wraps, the process typically involves using acetone remover due to its strong solvent properties, which effectively break down the resins and adhesives used in the wraps. Soaking in acetone allows for easier removal without damaging the natural nail underneath.

Non-acetone polish remover, on the other hand, does not have the same strong solvent capabilities as acetone. While it can work for regular nail polish, it is not effective for dissolving the adhesives used in fabric wraps. Therefore, using non-acetone polish remover is not a proper step in the removal process for fabric wraps.

Soaking in acetone, utilizing a buffer to gently smooth the surface after the wraps are removed, and the gentle peeling of the wraps are all standard steps in the correct removal process. These methods ensure that the nails remain healthy and free from damage during wrap removal.
