I use tammy taylor and I have a couple clients that I've had problems with the acrylic adhering to their nails. So I tried the TT liquid with CDN powder and it works great for them. Now, I only do this if i have issues with the acrylic adhering (meaning most of the enhancments are falling off). but it works great. Cira

It is my understanding that once gel has been placed under the light and properly cured, you are NOT mixing product, because the gel has polymerized. This is unlike acrylic where there may be the temptation to mix company ABC's monomer with company XYZ's polymer. That's a no-no (but not to say that folks don't do it). Can any gel experts out there confirm or dispute this??
