5 Pack of Sunflower II Inner Layer Filters

5 Pack of Sunflower II Inner Layer Filters compatible with Sunflower II LED Nail Dust Collector

Features:

• Ultra-high airflow filter for maximum suction and fast particle pass-through.
• Coarse-efficiency filter designed to allow nail dust to pass through the filter pores easily while keeping airflow inside the Sunflower II LED extremely strong.

Can the inner filter be used alone?

Yes, the inner filter can be used on its own and can also be stacked inside an original (type 1) filter.

Because this filter has much larger pores than outer filters, air and dust move through it with very little resistance. This makes it a useful option for techs who prioritize maximum airflow and suction when working with heavier or sticky dust that tends to sit on top of tighter filters, reducing surface buildup and helping maintain strong airflow at the table.

When used alone, the inner filter will need to be replaced more frequently than standard or type 3 filters.

Here’s why:

• The large pores allow particles to travel deeper into the filter
• More dust is pulled through the material rather than resting on the surface
• As a result, the filter fills faster internally and requires more frequent replacement

This does not indicate poor performance—it simply means the filter is prioritizing airflow over long-term dust storage.

How it performs in the salon: 

The inner filter has an air-permeability rating of ≥10,000 l/m²·s, which is far higher than any outer filter option. This means:

• Very little airflow restriction
• Strong, consistent suction
• Reduced strain on the motor

This high airflow is intentional and critical for maintaining performance when dust volume is high.

How most users choose to use it:

• Paired with an outer filter: Best balance of airflow, filtration, and filter life
• Used alone: Maximum airflow and reduced surface buildup, with more frequent replacement

Some techs alternate setups depending on the service they are performing.

Cleaning and maintenance:

When using the inner filter alone:

• Inspect frequently
• Replace sooner than Type 1 or Type 3 filters
• Expect higher replacement frequency due to internal dust loading

When paired with an outer filter, replacement intervals are significantly longer.

Best for:

✔ Techs who want maximum airflow and suction
✔ Services with heavy or sticky dust
✔ Temporary or service-specific setups
✔ Users who understand it requires more frequent replacement

Consider Type 1 or Type 3 if you want

• Longer filter life
• More dust captured in the outer layer
• Less frequent filter changes
