Pam, It's a car graphics grade type of vinyl material. It isn't used to add strength or length to nails. It CAN go over gels or acrylics if you want but it can also be used on natural nails with no prep needed other than cleansing the nail plate. You cut it to the width you need but leave it a bit longer than the nail. You warm up the product and adhere it to the nail. Once you have them all on and smoothed out you take a glass file to gently file off the excess at the free edge. I found filing down was best so it didn't pull up on the Minx. Hope this helps a bit!

A "film" that you apply to nails that you eventually "remove" by "peeling off after exposure to a hot hair dryer"? What the heck! What IS this stuff!? I need the condensed version of application! :-) So far, my logic tells me that you cut it to fit the nail, heat it up with a hair dryer to get it to stick, then peel it off when you want them off. How strong is it? Does it compare to acrylic/gels? Can you apply it over acrylic/gels? More info please!
