We have renamed our original Base/Topcoat to Tacky Top! Same great product, just a new name :)
- 15ml bottle
- Great for darker colored polish as Tacky Top does not contain UV blockers
which can give certain shades a blue hue. - Excellent for an array of art techniques
- Easily and safely clean your art brushes with Tacky Top
TIP:
We recommend our href=' data-mce-fragment='1' data-mce-href=' Builder Base for natural nail gel polish application.
OVER ACRYLIC, SCULPTING GEL OR ACRYGEL:
- Simply shape your enhancement with our Ugly Duckling Medium Zebra File, Coarse Buffer or if you prefer an e-file: the Medium grit Arbor Sanding Band. Do not buff or finish the nail with anything finer or you may risk the polish/top coat peeling.
- Remove all dust. Do not use a cleanser as some cleansers can contain oil. Do not use alcohol or acetone either as it will soften the grooves from finish filing and create too smooth a surface for maximum adhesion. Feel free to have your clients wash their hands, just be sure that the nails are completely dry before top coating.
- Apply Tacky Top directly over the dust free enhancement and cure in our Ugly Duckling LED Gel Lamp for 60 seconds.
- Allow nails to cool approximately 45-60 seconds after removing from the LED Lamp before cleansing. Remove the tacky inhibition layer from the nails with Ugly Duckling Gel Cleanse.
OVER GEL POLISH & COLOR GEL:
- Apply gel polish/color gel and cure. Do not remove tacky inhibition layer.
- Apply Tacky Top and cure in Ugly Duckling LED Lamp for 60 seconds.
- Allow nails to cool approximately 45-60 seconds after removing from the LED Lamp before cleansing. Remove the tacky inhibition layer from the nails with Ugly Duckling Gel Cleanse.
TIP:Always allow Tacky Top to 'cool' for 45-60 seconds after removing from the LED Lamp before cleansing to ensure the highest gloss shine.
