The GelColor application process is very similar to other soak-off gel polishes… This is how you do it: Preparation Step 1. Prepare the nail by using a cuticle pusher tool to push back the cuticles for a clean application of gel Step 2. Shape your nails to your desired style with a natural nail filer (150 grit or higher) Step 3. Prepare the natural nail by gently removing the shine using a buffer; lightly buff it to rough up the nail beds Step 4. Remove the oils and dust from your nail by using a nail cleanser OPI Gelcolor Application Step 5. (Roll the GelColor bottle in your hands to mix the contents) Apply a thin, even layer of GelColor Base Coat onto your nail. Step 6. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 10 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 1 minute. The top coat will remain tacky/sticky, but this is normal for any soak-off gel polish. Step 7. (Roll the GelColor bottle in your hands to mix the contents) Apply a thin, even layer of GelColor Color coat to your nail. Don’t forget to cap the nail edges to create a seal. Make sure you remove any GelColor from the skin prior to curing. Step 8. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 20 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 2 minutes. Step 9. Apply a second coat of GelColor color to the nail. Step 10. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 20 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 2 minutes. Step 11. Apply a thin, even layer of Gelcolor Top Coat onto your nail. The top coat creates a high shine while protecting the gel layers below it from damage. Don’t forget to cap the nail edges to create a seal. Step 12. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 20 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 2 minutes. Step 13. Use a liberal amount of alcohol (99%) or gel cleanser with a lint-free pad to remove the tacky/sticky residue from your nail.
