Which material is primarily used for high shine bits?

  1. Ceramic

  2. Carbide

  3. Steel

  4. Diamond

The correct answer is: Carbide

The material primarily used for high shine bits is diamond. Diamond bits are designed to provide a smooth, high-shine finish on nails. The hardness of diamond allows it to effectively buff and polish the nail surface without causing damage, making it ideal for achieving a reflective and polished look. While ceramic, carbide, and steel are also common materials used in nail tools, they serve different purposes. Ceramic bits can provide a smooth finish but are not as effective for achieving a high gloss as diamond. Carbide is primarily used for cutting and reducing nail thickness rather than for finishing, and steel bits are generally used for shaping and filing, rather than for creating a shine.
