Do you also have A levels or was your level 3 beauty enough?

I think the op has has her question answered so I’ll close here :)

Remember you must fully sanitise (clean) the file before you spray. No point disinfecting a dirty, dusty file.

No trade prices please! :)

Your lamp is probably the problem I’m afraid. What lamp are you using?

No problem :)
