Hi do you use anything else other then isopropyl to remove sticky layer?

Like what exactly? D:sperse is what you should be using as it goes hand in hand with CND Shellac.

Just a lint free pad

Nothing else should be used!

You can use 90% IPA or D-Sperse.

In an absolute pinch, there are other things that would work - but they're so much more expensive than D Sperse or IPA as to make it silly to use on a permanent basis.

You can use a cotton ball with a little acetone and little bit of cuticle oil also

Acetone Is one of the key things you use to remove product. Yes of course it would work to remove the inhibition layer but I would not advise this at all & suggest this would interfere with the longevity of the manicure! How could you then guarantee your work or be confident there would not be a break down in service?

This isn't a good idea at all

Hi guys,

If I am out of cleanser for a day then I would use non acetone polish remover to remove the sticky layer as a last resort. I use pH bond and I haven't had any problems as long as the gel doesn't get on the surrounding skin. But of course I usually use alcohol to remove the sticky layer. This is in case of an emergency lol

Hand sanitizer (alcohol-based) will work in a pinch.

That is a great idea Nancy!
