How does primer appear when it is dry?

Clear
Opaque
White
Yellow

The correct answer is: White

When primer is dry, it typically appears opaque. This characteristic allows it to effectively prepare the nail surface for subsequent applications, such as nail enhancements or polish. A dry primer forms a solid foundation that ensures better adhesion for products applied on top. In contrast, a clear appearance is often attributed to a wet primer or formulations designed to be transparent. White or yellow appearances may indicate specific types of primers or improper curing, but a well-applied, dry primer is predominantly opaque, serving its purpose in nail treatments effectively.
