What type of problem are you having with them? I have the branding tools and have used them several times without any problems. PM me if you want some help! Have you looked on the Young Nails Tutorials on youtube I think there was one one there with the branding tools.

I have them and find them a bit hard to use. I am not sure if I have the base color thick enough. I seem to end up filling some of the impression away :irked:. But I am still practicing with them.

Hi i have these branding tools and have used them a few times, i really like them. make sure when using them u impress far enough into the acrylic so that it wont file away, also make sure the acrylic is not to wet or to dry. also dip the branding tool into dry acrylic prior to impressing it onto your clients finger this will prevent it sticking, hope you undrerstand this, im not sure if i am explaining this properly

I understand you 100% I am pushing all the way in to the base acrylic, and i do dip them in clear powder so they dont stick. I think i must not have enough base on them and that is why I file them away to easy. I try to do the "less is more" when I put acrylic on. lol
