Hi Angie, so far my Gelish has been fine, but I know a few of us struggle with Shellac Fedora and Cream Puff to apply it thin. I've always got at least one finger wrinkle whenever I apply Fedora, it's just a tad too thick. I think you might be right about the polish part of Shellac evaporating, and thickening.
Well..no more! The candle warmer heats it up just enough that I was able to apply nice, thin, even coats of Fedora and Cream Puff. I also threw Negligee and Romantique and my top coat on there too, with the same results. No more streaks. The way I look at it is..nice thin even coats for coverage = less product used, and less time soaking off. I think it's a win-win J Laura M From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Angela R Wingerter Sent: November-07-10 1:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: RE: NailTech:: gel is cold/storage Is it just Shellac that gets thick? I didn't know any of it got thick. Maybe the polish part in the Shellac is what is thickening up. I haven't had a problem with Gelish yet. <http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/tsmileys2/05.gif> Angie Wingerter _____ From: Laura Merzetti <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sun, November 7, 2010 12:36:29 PM Subject: RE: RE: NailTech:: gel is cold/storage Lynnette - I've started the experiment - Shellac Fedora and Cream Puff are warming up on it right now. I'll wait a few minutes then apply them to a tip and see if it helps!

I love that idea. I will adore the person who develops a thinner for those sogs that get too thick! (which I am sure is already out there, just not for us) Buenos dias!

If my room gets cold in the winter, I will usually heat my top coat this way. I've also been toying with the idea of doing this to the thicker Shellac colors to see if it helps with my application. Like Fedora. Laura M.
