Slider design #S-40

Instructions for working with the slider design
1. Make standard preparations for the nail plate: manicure, pedicure.
2. The slider should be slightly narrower (about 0.5-1mm, as a slider will need to be well sealed under the top).
Apply a base and dry under a UV lamp. Finish with 1-2 layers of white gel polish backing 1mm back from the cuticle line and the side rollers and dry each of the layers.
4. Finish with a light coat of top coat and dry.
5. Place the slider on a cloth dampened with warm slightly hot (not cold!) water for approximately 15-20 seconds. Press the film down to the nail and slide it off the paper base by about 1/3rd, keeping a reserve of 0.5-1mm at the base of the cuticle and remove the paper backing completely. Smooth out the film, pulling it slightly to avoid wrinkles. Gently smooth out the film, pushing out any trapped air and water with a soft cloth. Allow the nails to dry with the slider in the nail lamp.
6. With a fine abrasive file, gently remove the film from the free edge of the nail with a top-down motion. Wipe the edge of the nail with a lint-free cloth soaked in degreaser.
7. Finish with a top coat, sealing the cuticle base and shoulders well with 2 coats of film, drying each coat in a light. Remove the sticky layer.
