How to Use
To achieve the best results, you will need a nail stamper, a scraper, and stamping polish (sold separately).
- Preparation: Remove the blue protective film from the stainless steel plate. Clean the plate with nail polish remover to ensure a debris-free surface.
- Application: Apply a generous amount of stamping polish or highly pigmented nail lacquer over your chosen design on the plate.
- Scraping: Hold a scraper at a 45-degree angle and scrape quickly across the design to remove excess polish.
- Pickup: Immediately press a silicone stamper onto the plate with a firm, rolling motion to pick up the etched design.
- Transfer: Align the stamper over your nail and use a gentle rolling motion to transfer the image onto the nail surface.
- Sealing: Once the design is dry, apply a clear top coat to protect your art. If using a gel top coat, cure the nail under a UV/LED nail lamp as required by the gel manufacturer.
Care & Safety
- Handle with Care: The edges of the metal plates can be sharp; please handle them carefully during use and cleaning.
- Maintenance: Clean the plate thoroughly with acetone or nail polish remover after every use to prevent dried polish from clogging the fine etchings.
- Storage: Store in a dry, cool environment. Avoid leaving the plates in damp areas to prevent any potential oxidation over time.
- Safety: Keep out of reach of children. Use in a well-ventilated area when using nail polish and removers.
