Will this remove glue off of nails? I use glue-on nails and need something to file off the old glue when I change them out. Thanks.

This unit is only good for nail maintenance. You would need a stronger unit to do that.

Not very well. You have to wrap the nail up with foil and cotton loaded with acetone. Then take it off after a while and scrape, and do it again. The easiest way I find is to file it off with a coarse emery board, or use an electric filer- CVS has them for ten dollars- battery op, or you can get an electric one on ebay. It's very similar to acrylic when removing it.

I usually use an electic nail file to file it off of the top, then I soak off the polish underneath. If you do not have a electric nail file then you can use a regular file, it will take a bit longer.

Hi Smoody, I can think of two reasons your nails are still sticky. Most likely, you skipped the part where you wipe off the remaining residue with the included gel cleanser. You can also use regular rubbing alcohol to wipe off the sticky stuff. That is how the polish is designed, otherwise the layer underneath should be hard and dry after curing. If not, it's possible that you put one of the layers on too thick so it didnt cure properly. Next time, try warming up the bottles in some warm water prior to application. This will thin out the polish for a smoother application. Hope that helps!

No, that's the great thing about it. You just use regular nail polish remover, although acetone works better than non-acetone.

No they don't stick on, you have to buy a separate nail glue. The one I use is nyc nail glue, works fine for me. Good luck :)

I use "Best Glue Ever" by ScraPerfect. I squeeze a small amount on a paper plate and apply it with a small paint brush just like nail polish. When it's dry it is very sticky and just press the foil down on the nail. Use a q-tip to rub all over the nail to make sure it's completely covered then lift off. If there are any missing areas just press the foil back down. Cover with top coat. There are a ton of videos on YouTube.

With the adhesive glue, sold separately. Allow glue to dry a couple minutes til it's tacky to the touch. Rub foil on and peel off. The shiny foil will be left on your nail. Finish with a top coat.

No, it cleans the nail of any oil or residue before applying base coat. It would likely remove the base coat if you applied it after.

Tough one. All I could find was stain-removal handbooks like: http://www.amazon.com/Field-Guide-Stains-Identify-Virtually/dp/B0007QS6OE and http://www.amazon.com/Royal-Guide-Spot-Stain-Removal/dp/0743437837 As well as a "glue remover" for cosmetic nail glue. http://www.amazon.com/SUPERNAIL-Professional-Glue-Removal-Poisonous/dp/B000EVGQA8 that might work!? Or might melt the polyester...

Goo Gone is a good product to remove adhesives. I have considered the possibility that the reason the glue didn't hold for me is that I live in a very arid climate. If that is the case, maybe blowing it with a hairdryer would work

No it's only for acrylic nails. You should try a product called gelousy if you want to do gel. It's great!

Yes, this glue is awesome for anything with nails. I use it for broken natural nails and acrylic. My hands are in water quite a bit and it still holds.

I just use acetone nail polish remover from the Dollar Tree. I soak my nails for about 5 minutes and it peels right off with no nail damage. I have used the product for three years and think it is great.

Nail Envy is the best product I found for this.I use some nail glue on the split and brush on the Nail Envy as directed. It's the only thing that has worked for me in the past. I love it.
