How to use it: Use on the natural nail to create a high shine when not using polish. Also used to create a high shine on liquid and powder nail enhancements during nail competitions when top coat isn’t allowed.
How to apply it: Use the lowest grit first to smooth the nail surface. Use the next highest grit for creating a matte sheen to the surface of the nail or enhancement. Use the highest grit side, usually 3000-4000 to create a high shine on the nail.
How to store it: Store new shiners in a covered or sealed container. Used shiners can be disposed of or given to the client for home use.
