Pickup available at Willow Academy HQ
Usually ready in 24 hours
The No-Soak Kit has been specially created for professionals using rubber base coats as part of The No-Soak Method. This version combines two of our best-selling cross-hatched formation bits, chosen for their ability to handle the flexibility for thicker rubber bases with control and efficiency.
Inside this kit you’ll find:
The Poppy – Coarse Grade, Silver
The Bluebell – Medium Grade, Black
Together, they give you two grit options for safe, smooth removal and refinement. The cross-hatched teeth formation ensures a controlled cut, helping you achieve an effective colour removal whilst maintaining the safety and comfort of your client.

E-file bits must be cleaned & stored correctly to remain sharp. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 1
Remove dust and product using warm soapy water, the Willow Spit-Spot-Bit-Pot, and our Brass Brush. Alternatively, place in your Ultrasonic Cleaner with suitable detergent on the relevant cycle.
Step 2
Disinfect or sterilise. We recommend the Willow Spray & Go 2-in-1 system as it avoids prolonged soaking. Spray evenly, roll, and spray again. If using a soaking system, only steep for the recommended time — over-soaking will dull your bits.
Step 3
Wait 2 minutes, then thoroughly dry by hand (do not leave to air dry). Store in your Bit Case or Bit Book.
If your bit once required 1–2 swipes but now takes 3+ to penetrate product, it’s time for a new piece. Continuing to use a worn bit slows removal and increases physical strain.
