I use mostly Shellac, but I have a few other brands. I do exactly
what Michelle said... remove, drench in Solar Oil, file, cuticle
work, scrub and send them to wash, then Scrubfresh and reapply. That
routine got rid of all of the white spot problems I was having... I
do have to agree that I am not liking the fact that some clients
have had some low down breakage lately. Especially the ones who have
used no-chip like an artificial nail product since May. Not sure
what to think/do about that.... :(

Michelle,
I am thinking we have to re-educate these UV Gel Polish people :) The
need to know the protection of the gel or acrylic they had is not
there now. The need to rethink how the do things to avoid breaks.
When these low breaks or tears do happen, you can try this:
Apply one very thin coat of eco So Quick UV Gel Polish base.
Sprinkled a fine grind clear acrylic powder, such as might be used
with a dip system, cure for 1 minute and repeat. Remove the Sticky
dispersion layer, and light buff the nail to smooth out. Leaving that
layer rough, continue with your color coats.
Fiberglass will work with Eco SOG as well as a repair method. Wrap a
free-edge with it for really boo boo nails. Just apply clear gel
under the nail as well as on top. Float the fiber or silk into the
wet uncured gel. Slide it until it hangs off the nail then use your
brush to tuck it under. Press into wet gel there. Cure 2 mins. Be
sure to do a little hand upside down cure to be certain that the
underside got cured properly. Don't trust the reflector on this one.
