Also, wiping the dispirsion layer should not make a difference. The lack of primer sounds like the culprit to me!

The only other thing she suggested was to wipe off the dispersion layer with acetone before applying the colored gel. So I will try that when she comes in. Gonna re do to whole set for her. I was hoping it would last well for her, will have to add the concrete, LOL. Protein bond it is. thanks for your help!!!

However, if a client comes back with peeling, I then use a primer. I like to use Young Nails Protein Bond. In fact, I ALWAYS use Protein Bond just for that extra insurance. I don't soak off, I file off when they come back. The protein bond seems to really hold the product on so if you're soaking it off, it may take longer with the protein bond. Do you have Opti Bond from Akzentz? That works well too. Have you tried to call an Akzentz educator to trouble shoot? Good luck. Lynn In a message dated 3/6/2009 11:05:10 A.M.
