YN Finish is a GEL top coat and meant to be used to seal acrylics or gels. It is not meant to be used over polish, yes it can be done, but the polish must be very dry and you must file all of the polish off when the client returns. If the Star product air cures, then it is NOT a gel and not even close to being the same type of product. I am interested in seeing how you feel the wear is when your client returns in 2-3 weeks. I know with YN Finish, since it is a gel top coat and is impervious to acetone and other chemicals (it has to be filed off), I've seen nails come back up to four weeks later that are still as shiny as when they left.
It's easy to compare a $5 product to a $20 one but it sounds like it is a comparison of two totally different types of products, a gel topcoat and a fast setting polish dryer.
