Hi I have recently been trialling the Manicure Company gel and really like it but having big problems with removal, I am used to Shellac which is never a problem to remove. I have been filing off top coat to break seal and then wrapping for 20 mins in acetone as advised by the girl in Capital but no joy ended up having to scrape off, I have tried soaking in bowl of acetone same result. I phoned the company and was advised to buff off top coat then wrapping for 5 remove then scrape off bubbled colour coat (no bubbles) then wrapping for another 5 mins, didn't work. Thankfully have just been trying it on own nails, God knows what a client would think. Any tips anyone. Thanks Susan
 
I use the manicure company, I find it comes off ok if you fill a bowl with boiling water then place a bowl of acetone on top to warm the acetone and soak. X
 
20 minutes is way too long, the acetone would evaporate before then and the product will just reharden.

5 minutes is nowhere near long enough, Shellac takes 8 and its the easiest to remove of all the systems. I'd wrap for 8 then check
