Best CND top coat?

[Kaz Pinkies]

What top coat do you use most? Which one gives you the best results? I use the Express 5 which generally is ok. Some clients go 3 weeks no problem but a few only manage a week before a chip appears. Is the original top coat stronger than the Express5? I am going to purchase the Duraforce in the hope this will help those with weaker nails that are prone to chipping more easily. Also, does anyone use two top coats of the Express5 in order to provide extra strength?
Any advice gratefully received.

I've only used the original because I like it. Have yet to see a need to change.

In order of strength (low to high) the top coats go:
1. Xpress - 5 min soak off
2. Original - 8-10 min soak off
3. Duraforce- 15 min soak off

I probably use them all in equal amounts depending on the client nail condition.
The bendier their nails, the stronger you need to go.

Original or duraforce needed over chrome or delicate foils I find best.

I've had very good results with using duraforce after base coat and then again as top coat on weak nails. Definitely makes a difference! [emoji4]

I was thinking about trying duraforce as a few off my ladies only get 8-10 days
