Yes I have works really well just dry wipe your TIO before application
 
Thanks Natalie...just waiting my delivery...cant wait to try it. Do u put TIO over chrome when done as well?
 
I put 2 coats of TIO on after the chrome is applied .
 
Hi, what chrome powders (brands) and procedure is used please. Just looking into this :)
 
I've just seen Gelish are launching their own chrome powder.. It's says you can preorder now online but no details of when it will be available.. Keen to try this!

Tronk, how do you stop the chrome powder transferring into the TIO?

You either have 2 bottles of TIO - 1 for glitters and 1 for polish - which is what many techs do
or you can have 1 bottle and just clean the brush before you put it back in the bottle, but you lose some product this way.
or, get yourself a nail palette, pour some TIO there and apply with a gel brush.
I use both the last ways and they work fine
 
Great thank you. I wasn't sure of cleaning vs using a different brush.. Either way will get a fair bit of wastage I guess.

The chrome powder arrived today so I'm eager to try it out this weekend!!

I use a separate TIO X
 
I have 2 TIO, one I only use for glitters, chrome, holo etc xx
 
Has anyone used the Gelish chrome yet? What do you think of it? Is there a halo one yet?
 
Tronk, did you wipe the TIP before applying he chrome powder, or leave it tacky?
