I'm in the process of experimenting with several sog(s). Could you
comment on some of your soak off times for the different brands you
use - which do you find the easiest to soak off?
I just used the soak off gels from nailite (in pots) and ended up
filing them off because they wouldn't budge. Thought I would also
try the GIA in bottles if they are easier to soak off. I've tried
Gelish, Shellac and Mani-Q.
Thanks for any help -- (sorry to the person I think I sent this to privately).

Nora, eco So Quick soaks off in 5 minutes when properly applied. If
you use extra color layers it may take 7-8 minutes. We recommend the
foil & cotton ball method with eco Removal Solution after the "seal"
is broken. The Removal Solution has added ingredients that not only
help reduce the drying effect of acetone, but we have found it
actually speeds up the soak process. We also have this great new
item: Accelerating Complex. The kit comes with 2 different additives.
One is added to your acetone to add in the special ingredients that
make up our Removal Solution. The other is an additive to alcohol to
make a Wipe Solution (to cleanse and remove the dispersion
layer). The Accelerating Complex additives mixed with your alcohol &
acetone can then be used with any soak off UV Gel Polish.
One thing I have found, is that there are really 3 types of gels now.
The traditional "hard" gel that needs to be filed off and is
impervious to acetone. Soak off "soft gels" that will soak off, but
the time is usually around 20+ minutes. Both of these are considered
"enhancement" products. Then the latest is the UV Gel Polishes that
soak off in 5-10 minutes depending on the brand, and would be
considered an alternative to traditional nail polish for your natural
nail clients.
I hope that helps!
