Can I just leave this on top without a top/latex coat? I don't care what color it is but wasn't sure if it would wear better with a top coat of paint.

The paint is black and a little rough so a coat looks better and smooth s out the surface a little. On the other hand the less matter between the paint and the magnet the better the grip.

I would say no because the Vinylux line is made to not need a base coat. I would only use as a top coat.

You can finish the top with Arm R Seal SATIN finish. Use at least 5 coats for a good protective surface. Sand between coats with 400 grit and finish sand after last coat dries with 600 grit. Works great!

i think so. i've used other brand gel colors with the gelish top and base coat with no issues. so doing the opposite should work also.

File the top coat to break the seal then soak off. Some ppl don't file its up to you :):):):)

Am afraid that since the sun roof does not have a frame to it to speak of, the unit would continue on to the roof top. This very possibly would scratch the paint. It is not recommended that you use the product to clean your Sun Roof. Sorry. :-(((

I would highly recommend not taking this apart at all. They are made pretty cheap. If you want to get rid of it, I hate it too, then just wrap everything in tape but the top surface and spray with flat black paint.

It looks better if you use it for the under coat. If you do put it on top, paint another thin layer of color on top. It will be shiny again. Best of luck!

no you don't have to paint it, you can to give it your desired color, the most you can do is line in the small channels with grey or black lining marker

It matters sometimes depending on top coat color. Sometimes you may need or want to use other primer colors such as: white, red or black.

No paint necessary. Unless you really want it a different color. I'm sure regular spray paint will work.

It would have to be a REALLY good paint. It's finish is very solid and polished. I'm afraid the paint might not stick to it very nicely. But I'm also not a painter. I assume some REALLY good paint and about 2 coats should be okay. I would personally take the risk. Hope this helps you.

For my purposes, I did not need any kind of sealant, but I was painting over latex paint and onto a canvas. I'm not sure if you'd need a sealant for other purposes.

I would say that you can use the top coat as polish. I don't know how well it will stick without having the color layer under it...since the colored layer isn't shiny, the clear top coat really sticks to it. I hope this helps!

This base coat is meant to be used with a top gel coat and then cured with uv light. I know that without the light the polish never and i mean never dries. I don't know if you could put regular polish over it. I feel like you would still need to use an uv light.

The top is painted. We have the the usual jewel boxes, combs, etc on top. My wife does not use it for make-up etc, so it is just fine for our usage.

You can paint it, but it would void the warranty. As far as the type of paint to use I would contact a local paint store.
