Common Issues & Fixes

• ⚠
  **3D elements chipping:** Ensure thorough curing of all sculpting gel layers and proper top coat application. A quick fix involves carefully resculpting the tiny section and sealing.
• ⚠
  **Lifting at the base:** This often indicates improper nail preparation. Visit your technician for a professional repair or reapplication to ensure longevity.
• ⚠
  **Dullness of design:** Use a high-quality, non-wipe top coat and avoid prolonged exposure to harsh cleaning agents. A fresh layer of top coat can restore shine.
• ⚠
  **Sculpted parts feel rough/catch:** Use a very fine buffer to gently smooth sharp edges, then apply and cure a thin layer of top coat for a polished finish.
