I have been using Gelish for a number of years now, but want to put foils on for art. The type you press onto a sticky layer then top coat it.

Unfortunately you can't do it with Gelish. You can with shellac, but I dont really want to change my whole system.
Is there a top coat or something I can use on top of Gelish which will leave a sticky layer, rather than an inhibition layer?
 
You can use Gelish, I do. Top coat like normal. Remove inhibition layer like normal. Apply foil adhesive glue. Apply foil to glue. Top coat foil. I double top coat the foil to make sure it lasts.
 
Oh thanks for that. Where do you get your glue from.

It came with the first foils I bought. But you can get it at any supply house or online. I've even seen it on eBay.
