Methods of Proper Cleaning
Proper cleaning requires liquid soap/detergent, water and the use of a clean and disinfected scrub brush to remove all
visible debris and residue.
All items should be scrubbed with a clean and disinfected scrub brush under running water.
Cleaning is not disinfection; disinfection is an entirely separate step. Different items are cleaned in different ways. This
often depends on the item manufacturing material and how the item has been used.
NOTE: the cleaning step must be properly performed before an item can be disinfected. All items must be thoroughly
rinsed and dried with clean cloth or paper towels prior to putting them into a disinfectant.
Methods of Proper Disinfecting
After proper cleaning, all reusable implements/tools must be disinfected by complete immersion in an appropriate disinfecting solution (see below, Appropriate Disinfectants).
The item must be completely immersed so that all surfaces, including handles, are soaked for the time required on the
disinfectant manufacturer’s label.

ENGLISH
In general, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) registered disinfectants require 10 minute immersion; isopropyl
and ethyl alcohol require 5 minutes.
Remove items after the required time, using clean and disinfected tongs or gloves to avoid skin contact with the disinfectant solution.
If required by the instruction label, rinse thoroughly under running water.
Allow items to air-dry completely by placing them on top of a clean towel and covering them with another clean towel.
Thick foam cushioned buffers should have the moisture pressed out while in between disinfectant products are designed
to destroy disease-causing microorganisms (pathogens) on non-living surfaces, such as those described in this docu-
ment.
They are not appropriate for use on living skin. Contact with skin should be avoided.
Appropriate salon disinfectants include the following:
a) EPA-registered Hospital disinfectants with bactericidal, fungicidal and virucidal claims on the label.
b) 10% bleach solution (1 part bleach to 9 parts water)
c) Isopropyl alcohol, 70%-90% solution
d) Ethyl alcohol, 70%-90% solution
Individual Client Packs
Tools/instruments kept in individual packs must be properly cleaned and disinfected after each use. If a client provides
their own implements/tools, they must be properly cleaned and disinfected before use. State rules require all tools and
equipment to be disinfected before being reused, even if used by the same client! Improperly cleaned and disinfected
implements may grow infection/disease-causing organisms before the client returns for their next visit, thereby increasing
the risk of infection. Never use air-tight bags or containers for storage as these can promote bacterial growth.
Methods for Proper Storage of Tools and Equipment
All properly cleaned, disinfected and dried implements/ tools must be stored in a sanitary manner. A lined drawer is
usually adequate, provided it is clean, contains only clean items and is properly labelled. Store soiled or used items in a
properly labelled, covered container separate from clean items. Never use airtight containers or zipper bags – these may
promote bacterial growth!
Abrasive Files, Buffers and Electric File Bits: after each use abrasive les, buffers, blocks or bits must be thoroughly
cleaned by manually brushing with a clean and disinfected brush or by other adequate methods to remove all visible debris. The sides of foam cushioned buffers, blocks or other abrasives should also be brushed after each use. After proper
cleaning abrasives les, buffers and blocks are best disinfected by immersing in (or saturating with) 70-90% isopropyl
or ethyl alcohol for 5 minutes. Once electric bits have been thoroughly cleaned, they must be disinfected by complete
immersion in an appropriate EPA registered disinfectant, as described in the next section. Any porous (absorbent) abrasive le, buffer, block, band, etc. that comes in contact with broken, damaged, infected or unhealthy skin or nails must be
properly disposed of immediately, as described below.
Contact with Blood, Body Fluid or Unhealthy Conditions
If blood or body uid comes in contact with any salon surface, the nail professional should put on a pair of clean protective, disposable gloves and use an EPA-registered Hospital liquid disinfectant or a 10% bleach solution to clean up all
visible blood or body uid. In case of an accidental cut, clean with an antiseptic and bandage the cut. Disposable items,
such as a cotton-tipped wood stick must be immediately double-bagged and discarded after use, as described at the end
of this section. Any non-porous instrument or implement that comes in contact with an unhealthy condition of the nail or
skin, blood or body uid, must be immediately and properly cleaned, then disinfected using an EPA-registered Hospital
disinfectant as directed or a 10% bleach solution for 5 minutes. Any porous/absorbent instrument that comes in contact
with an unhealthy condition of the nail or skin, blood or body uid must be immediately double-bagged and discarded in
a closed trash container or biohazard box.
