Hi! If you find out if could thin the foil glue with water and work please tell us, I have mine getting dry and don’t dare to experiment with it. Beautiful work by the way, as always.
NICE! With the Best Glue Ever rather than mixing up a bottle of thinned glue, you can put a little bit of glue on a plastic cap or other "palette" and add water with a little brush (like you're mixing watercolors) and brush on your nail.
I'm really curious to know how the ScraPerfect glue has held up for you over the course of 2 years. Any thickening? Would you still consider it to be your preferred glue for foils?
If you don't mind using gel Makartt is a highly rated one and it works great for me but something I found out is put a thin layer of a no wipe topcoat on the back of your foil cure and it will peel off perfectly like a decal..then just apply it to your nails.. that's my preferred method bc the Makartt works well it's just all the rubbing and I don't want to miss a spot
I am not sure what is available currently but brands I have used are UNT water based base coat (which works as topcoat for foils just fine), Sophi, Lina Nail Art Supplies.
No, they don't flake off since you have a top coat over them. How long they last depends on your top coat. For longest wear, apply a water based top coat, let dry completely and then apply a good quick dry top coat that normally works well for you.
Best glue ever se disuelve con agua y se pone en frasco? cuanto de agua y cuanto de glue?. Best glue ever dissolves with water and is put in a jar? how much water and how much glue?xoxo
I just got some free samples of foils. I can't wait to try them. Thanks for all the knowledge.
I notice that putting regular nail top coat on some foils they will fade, although with gel top coat it
Won’t happen
Your nails are gorgeous!
Great tips. .can't wait to play with my foil's again, struggled with them for a while.
I put water in mine and it worked like a charm

But, YES, you CAN use water to think The Best Glue Ever™!

I haven't used it in a while to be honest because I was using up some others. Thickening is an issue though because you can always add more water.
Thank you so so much for your help. I’ve been struggling with my born pretty glue. Can I use a led uv light?
I'm interested in this but don't know much about it. I'm actually looking a good glue. Any suggestions? Is this glue good?

Howwww do you get JNR to work. I can’t for my life
my nail glue leaves terrible streaks. can i dilute it with water or isopropyl alcohol? pl guide how to deal with this?
I have used water to dilute. A little at a time. Shake and test before adding more.
The glue in the skinny bottle that you used on your ring finger is my favorite and I cannot find it anymore! 😭
+Lindsey Garber I can't remember where I got it but I will try to find out.
Hi, that glue is the one it comes with your purchase on dollarnailart.com
Thank you Marsina!
Born Pretty had it
Theresa D thank you!
Buffing on the chrome powder seems like it would be so much easier, with better results.
On gel, definitely!
its great idea but I guess I need to stay my nails long thank u for sharing
Thank you for this tutorial. When you finished with the foils did you apply a top coat?
Yes, a water based one. A regular TC will crinkle the foil.
OMG thank you. Do you have a h20 brand you can recommend?
I am not sure what is available currently but brands I have used are UNT water based base coat (which works as topcoat for foils just fine), Sophi, Lina Nail Art Supplies.
You can also use UV top coat, it looks great.
Hi how long do u say it took for the glue to b dry in order for the foil to stay on as perfect as it did?
I let it dry about 10-15 minutes. Even though it turns clear after a couple of minutes it's still too tacky. You want the glue to fully dry.
Kyong Lee omg thank you I was struggling with this glue it just didn’t work and now I know why.
Do foils flake off into food, etc., as you wear them? How long do they last?
No, they don't flake off since you have a top coat over them. How long they last depends on your top coat. For longest wear, apply a water based top coat, let dry completely and then apply a good quick dry top coat that normally works well for you.

school glue. yes
Hi Kyong. What brand is that stamper that you used on your middle nail? I have long nails and that looks like the perfect size for me.
+Crystal Purves That was a Creative Shop space stamper.
Kyong Lee Thanks 💖 Great tips too, I am excited to give foils a try again.
Hi do you hv a link to the ebay seller so i could check if they hv already premixed foil glue with scraperfect. Thks
www.lanternandwren.com/foiled-again-nail-foil-glue/
This is the only one I know that is mixed with Scraperfdct glue.
@@KyongLee thankyou very very much for taking the time to give all details in detail.
Does anyone know the active ingredient in the glue that makes the foil adhere? I want it for a craft project so I'm looking for a bulk glue
I don't know, but for bulk I would get the Best Glue Ever.
@@KyongLee It works with superglue it seems.
Oh, interesting. Although I am not sure I would use superglue on my nails lol. Can you share a pic of the finished prohect?
@@KyongLee I was just experimenting on decorating small items, such as a metal box
elmers glue does the job
Ask the manufacturer or add acetone not water.
👍👍👍
