I can't find a manual, although there's a DVD which I'll watch later, I had a demo given to me in the SS shop in Leeds by a lovely lady who showed me how to do it step by step.

I think the curing time she told me was 20 seconds, however it was a while ago around 5 months ago since she showed me and I forgot.

So please can someone give me a run down.

And just go through the exact sequence - base, two layers of colour and a top coat?

is this right.

So sorry to ask so many questions but I need to get this right. Thanks in advance. x

Base layer - cure 10 secs
colour x 2 coats - cure 2 mins each layer
top coat - cure 2 mins

Thanks, so you don't need to wipe with a finsihing wipe or anything? Sorry for all the questions!
 
You need to remove the sticky layer with D.Sperse...there's another thread about this which I've placed a reply to x
