Hi All...
I am loving Shellac, and hopefully a centre spread in the English language newspaper will be published tomorrow, so busier than ever!!
I am however, having major problems with removal.... It is now getting to the mid 40's C here every day, and even though I have fans, air con, etc, the temp in the salon is not as low as I would like! (I can't even have my lamp on to apply L&P cos it makes it just that little bit hotter, n I have no time to move my product!)
Anyway.... I think my problem is, that the acetone is evaporating due to the heat before it has done it's work..
After 10 mins, they are crumbly, but I have to put a lot of work into getting it off, lots of scraping with the orange stick, and then more acetone etc, etc.... The longer I leave it, the worse it gets, cos it all just hardens up again due the the evaporation...
So any hints and tips from those in warmer climates would be really appreciated! My clients love it, but not the fact that it is taking me 40 mins to remove!
I had thought of buffing it slightly before applying the acetone... Right or wrong! :!: ---------------- Now playing: Plastic Bertrand - Ca Plane Pour Moi via FoxyTunes
