Also I have found Eco tends to pull back which would make the tip seem bulky and thick. After you get the sog on all five always go back and lightly brush over the nails to pull the gel back out and you won't have that bump at the tip. Eco stays on very well for me. I haven't had good luck over ac either but you might try using 180 grit file before applying and use alcohol to clean because scrubfresh has acetone in it which would smooth out the surface of the ac and the gel will peel. You could also try using protien bond or a like product over the ac.

It is amazing product. I read your post and it definitely some mistake with preparation. I will write you my steps so you can try: 1. removing all nail polish layers from nails 2. pushing back cuticle 3. prepare nail plate with file of 240 grit or orange mini block 4. sanitizing nail plates with sanitizer spray and wait to dry 5. by careful to remove all dust prom nails 6. apply first Base coat and cure foe 30 sec in 36 w lamp 7. then first coat of colour ( mix color before application with birchwoos stick ) 8. cure 2 min in 36 w lamp 9. then second coat of colour and cure for 2 min 10. for end apply thin coat of clear SOG and cure 2 min 11. wipe with finishing wipe 12. and put nail oil on cuticle and all nails I have experience that this application last for 4 to 7 weeks. If you put on acrylic, you should wait acrylic to dry completely before you apply SOG, because if you don't, SOG will pill of in a five days. You can do all the some as the top layer on gels.
