Hi SandraI wouldn't recommend that you use an e-file on a gel. It is much too fierce for a gel and creates too much very fine dust.I know this is easy to say but you should be aiming for using just a white block to refine the edges of the gel and the free edge then glossing. If you are getting some bumps, is this because the gel has slid to the side? (in which case apply a 2 thinner layers or 'lock' it as its applied for 10sec under lamp) If the bumps are because you are using a gel that doesn't self level smooth the surface with the extreme tip of your brush just on the surface of the gel.a 240 grit should be right for a gel as it is relatively soft. Anything harder will disturb it too much.Any help?Marian
