ABSTRACT:
The present invention disclosed and claimed herein comprises an apparatus and method for curing and drying coatings on nails of the human hand. A housing (12) is provided having two elongated solid sides (14), one elongated solid top (15), two solid ends (16), and an elongated underneath side (18) having a length. Restrictive air vents (22) are provided along the length of the elongated underneath side (18) of the housing (12), such that the housing (12) and air vents (22) define a substantially closed air pressure chamber (34). An ultraviolet light source (20) is disposed along the underneath side (18). A flat surface (26) running the length of the underneath side (18) is disposed a distance beneath the restrictive air vents (22) and the ultraviolet light source (20). Also provided are air pressure means (28) for pressurizing the air pressure chamber (34), such that air flows evenly through the restrictive air vents (22) and evenly aerates the area above the flat surface (26) along the full length of the underneath side (18).
