Can this be used over base coat, polish, and top coat?

How often should I put this on and for how long before I start over again? Like every other day for 2 weeks and then start over for example?

I use it as a base coat, but it's not made to be a top coat; just a polish applied daily

Yes. This nail polish is amazing. It lasts so long. The top coat makes is last longer.

Yes, you can use ultimate compound, if necesssary. Sometimes a less abrasive compound or polish is enough, depending on the condition of your paint.

NO. this will remove the entire top layer even if you use a fine thing. I would recommend professional manicure to create a base. From there it should be easier to maintain. This is if you use acrylic or gel for false nails. Sally's has the most options I've found for buffers. But honestly a good clear top coat nail polish is the best option for that high shine I have found. When I use a buffer it is to make my nails soft and smooth not for shine.

I don't use it as a top or base coat. I actually use it alone as a polish in between color manicures. It protects my nails and me from messing with my nails during the weeks I want to take a break between color polish. When I am ready to do a color manicure I actually take it off and do a normal color manicure.

Yes. I believe so. I've never had problems getting the same color effect with this as a base coat.

I personally have not put this over my polish. It's a treatment for your nail so I think it would be redundant if you are using it over your polish. What I do is if your still repairing your nails then just do the treatment for one week and use it as a base coat next week. Hope that helps �

I believe the instructions indicate applying a coat every day for up to X days. If you use it with a polish at some point, it's applied as a top coat daily. It makes for a horrible base coat though.

It shouldn't be. Are you using a base coat, if so you're not supposed to. I should go on beautifully with 1-2 coats and their top coat. Try that.

Yes to the bc question. No to the other. I use this as a base, put my polish on then use this again and add a quick dry top coat. Works perfectly :)

I don't think so. It is made chemically to bond to other Vinylux polish. However, I have not tried using it over other types of polish.

Yes. Then every other day put it on over your polish. Remove everything after a week and start over.

Yes, you need both a top coat & a base coat for this product. You can use any brand top or base coat. I have an all-in-one base/top coat by Christrio.

Yes, I used Shellac base and top coat with gelish gel polish on my natural nails. Works really good.

I've never tried it but my niece uses lots of different type of polishes & other gel colors over her gel base. After she applies color she finishes with the gel clear top coat & has great success.

That is correct; the way I use it is: 1 layer base coat 2 layers any color (same brand)1 layer after polish and let it dry. Remove once a week and you will see a dramatic difference

I would recommend buying the base coat, too. The top coat may peel off if you don't use the base coat first.
