Gently buff nails using a 100/180 Grit Buffer to remove any shine.  \n• Dehydrate and cleanse the nail plate using 100% pure acetone.  \nNo “prep-and-wipe” or “scrub-fresh” solutions.  \nBASE COAT  \n• Apply a base coat of BIAB™️, 2in1 Base, Rubber Base or All-in-1 BIAB™️ .  \n• Seal the free edge.  \n• Cure for 60 seconds in TGB Light the Way nail lamp or if using Rubber Base, BIAB™️ OR All-in-one BIAB™️, cure for 99 seconds on low heat mode. The lamp has been specifically designed to cure TGB products. We do not recommend the use of  \nother lamps.  \nAPPLICATION  \nSTUDIO GEL™ CAN BE USED TWO WAYS, FOR NAIL ART OR FOR A FULL COVER LOOK  \nNAIL ART  \n• Pick up a small amount of Studio Gel™️ on your nail art brush (a little goes a long way) by dipping the brush straight into the product (no need to stir) .  \n• Begin creating your design. Studio Gel™️ can be applied over a TGB base coat, BIAB™️ and All-in-one BIAB™️ .  \n• For thin lines/ small nail art, cure for 30 seconds 48W lamp or above LED light, 1 minute UV (we recommend using the TGB Light the Way nail lamp) .  \n• For perfect application, we recommend using TGB Nail Art Brushes specifically Liner and Detail ranges.  \n• Once you have finished your design, and cured in between, finish the look by applying a TGB top coat (we recommend using the TGB Light the Way nail lamp) .  \nFULL COVER  \n• Pick up a small amount of Studio Gel™️ using the TGB Round 02 nail art brush and apply a thin layer to the nail.  \n• Cure for 60 seconds using a 48W lamp, LED light or 2 minutes on a UV lamp (we recommend using the TGB Light the Way nail lamp) .  \n• Apply a second thin layer of Studio Gel™️ and cure again for 60 seconds (please ensure you are curing between layers) .  \n• If the finish looks streaky – do not worry! Once you apply Extreme Shine Top it will even out the coverage giving you the perfect glossy finish.  \nAPPLICATION  \nSTUDIO GEL™ CAN BE USED TWO WAYS, FOR NAIL ART OR FOR A FULL COVER LOOK  \nTOP TIPS  \n• For perfect application, we recommend using a clean, fresh non-hydrated nail art brush.  \n• After you’ve cleaned your brush with acetone, wipe thoroughly with a lint wipe – we find that this makes the bristles smooth and soft for the best application.  \n• Protect your nail art brushes from sunlight by keeping the cap on when not in use.  \n• Keep Studio Gel™️ out of direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is secured on the pot when not in use.  \nTOP COAT  \n• Apply Extreme Shine Top, Rubber Top, Matte Top or All-in-1 BIAB™️ and seal the free edge.  \n• Cure using the Light the Way Lamp for 60 seconds. If using Matte Top or Rubber Top, cure for 99 seconds on low heat mode to avoid heat spikes.  \n• There is no need to wipe or cleanse after curing.  \n*Only All-in-1 BIAB™ needs to be cleansed or buffed after curing to remove tacky layer*  \nREMOVAL  \nTOP COAT REMOVAL  \n• Using the 120/180 Grit File, remove the top coat by filing the entire surface of the leftover gel polish until the shine has gone completely.  \nSOAK OFF  \n• Soak TGB Lint Free Wipes in plenty of 100% acetone and wrap fingers in foil or place them (folded) in nail clips on each finger.  \n• Leave to soak for 10 to 15 minutes. Times may vary depending on the products used, such as nail art, glitter, and number of layers.  \nREMOVAL  \n• Remove the foil or clip from one nail whilst keeping the other nails wrapped in acetone. Use a cuticle pusher to gently scrape away the gel.  \n• Do not force the gel off. If it is still hard, allow the gel to soak for longer.  \n• Use a sharp Cuticle Pusher to remove any remaining soaked gel.  \n• Support your client’s natural nail tip with your finger while removing the gel to avoid bending or snapping the nail.  \nREMOVAL  \nBUFF AND SHAPE  \n• If there is any base c","cbCaicgjGdz2Kbo8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicgjGdz2Kbo8","pdf",1058405,"English","# Preparation\n## Prep\n## Base coat\n# Application\n## Nail art\n## Full cover\n# Top tips and Top coat\n## Top tips\n## Top coat\n# Removal\n## Top coat removal\n## Soak off\n## Buff and shape","[{\"question\":\"What is the recommended prep method before applying the gel base coat?\",\"answer\":\"Sanitise hands, push back cuticles with a cuticle pusher, file nails to shape, and gently buff to remove shine.
