I use a sciver bit to prep around cuticle and then a fine sanding band all over the nail. I apply the primer just at the free edge. If you are getting lifting at the cuticle and sidewalls, you may be getting the product too close to the cuticle or it is leveling into the sidewalls before you get it into the light to cure. If it cures on the skin, it will definately lift.

I dont buff the shine, I file with 180 file. I file everywhere on the nail plate. They lift by cuticle and the side walls. I will try no primer tonight and let you know how that works tomorrow. I usually lif the next day. ________________________________ Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2011 18:08:49 -0800 From: [email protected] Subject: Re: NailTech:: please help To: [email protected] I don't use primer and it doesn't lift. Are you lightly buffing the shine off the top of the nails and around the cuticle area? Where do they start to lift? I think you only have to cure the base for 30 seconds. I usually do one minute becuase I don't have a 30 second option on my lamp. Lorraine can you over cure the gels? What is the clear that you are using? I have used the clear that came with the kit and it worked but I usually use Gelish top it off with the Eco.

Are you stirring the gel really well? Are you applying each coat thinly? How are you applying the base coat? The base coat works best when you use very little and it is "scrubbed" into the nail.
