I’ve been using your slick pour with monomer as a traditional acrylic application and I ADORE IT. Especially the flash & burn- creates gorgeous fades!!
When you are using the Conversion Gel, we recommend prepping the nail as you would any other enhancement (push back cuticles, remove shine and cleanse with Swipe). After cleansing, adhere your tip, cut, shape and blend it. Using the medium sanding band or 150 grit file, remove the shine from the remainder of the tip and dust the nail off with a dry manicure brush. Carefully use a lint free wipe with Swipe to cleanse the natural nail again, but avoid getting Swipe on the tip as this can smooth the surface out again. Apply a coat of Protein Bond to the whole nail and then you can begin your application with the Conversion Base and Slick Pour powders.
I love slick pour... it's so versatile. You can even use it with the synergy gels! What was the name of this slick pour? Want to make sure I have it before the sale!
Monomer completely wets and absorbs the powder and other applications are being absorbed differently, more bottom to top. This results in a different look.
Can you layer the mani q fiber gel first, then the conversion base, slick pour with clear sculpture to do a dimensional nail then finish it with conversion top? Or it really doesnt matter what top coat to use?
We would recommend using either hard gel (Synergy) or soft gel (ManiQ/Fiber Gel/Conversion), but not both within the same nail. Soft gels tend to be more flexible whereas hard gels tend to be more firm. When you try to combine both of these together, you may not get the durability needed for an extension.
I asked in the twitch stream yesterday if I could use the slick pour colors over my clear fiber gel, someone did answer saying, yes, it works lovely with fiber gel. Can we see that process if it does I deed work? Much thanks in advance. I need to purchase the conversion base and top nect sale. ❤
I believe we were saying you could use slickpour with fiber gel like you would a glitter press but since fiber gel is so thick, you wouldn’t want to pour it on top like with conversion.
Is it possible to use 3 coats of under the radar dip powder and then for example use ManiQ or nail addition after the 3rd step of the resin system with protein bond or is this not possible. Client of mine loves resin system but loves a few colours of the ManiQ and nail addiction.
If you use more than 2 coats of the resin and powder, the activator may not be able to get all the way through and the product may have challenges setting up. If you are going to do a gel polish over, you could do the "dip" with Under the Radar and the Conversion Gels rather than the resin. Here's a video that will show you the process with Conversion and Slick Pour and then after filing, you can apply Protein Bond and then your gel polish color and top coat. ua-cam.com/video/sqMtfNWv0Yc/v-deo.htmlsi=Zn6AhT6Nsf38nTPk
Question!: for conversion base, is it specifically for the slick pour? I’ve tested it out with slick pour but I don’t know how else to use the base. Any recommendations???
I’ve used it as gel polish Base and top. I also really like to use it to sandwich regular nail lacquer (polish) between so that it holds up better. (I believe this was the original intention for this product). The Conversion top coat is also really great to use over nails that have a stamped design. It doesn’t smudge the stamping.
So my clients are coming back with cracked tips at the free edge after a few days-a week. Is there anything I can adjust in my procedure to prevent this? I prep using 150 grit efile, then: 1. Swipe 2. keratin bond 3. Base 4. Dip powder (Then do two more coats of base/dip) 5. Activator 6. File 7. Swipe 8. Protein bond 9. Ultimate Finish Gel Top. Should I put activator again after filing? Am I applying protein bond at the correct step? Thanks in advance

I don’t use my slick pour enough! It makes doing my right hand so much easier. ❤
Exactly! I try to do the easiest thing I can for my right hand as well 🤣 🤣 🤣!
Thank you so much for this video, very helpful!
Very Helpful Information Guys.. 👏👍👍
Great glitter,thanks for the video
Great video thank you.
Can we use plastic tips to add a little bit of length to natural nail then the slickpour with the conversion gel method?

I believe it's Pinata Blitz.
Wow love that colour what is it please
It is piñata blitz
Great video❤❤❤
Sometimes i get chipping a few days after using the conversion method.. any tips??
Is it with any color or darker colors?
@@youngnailsinc with any color
How are you prepping the natural nail? What grit file/sanding band are you using to remove shine and are you applying Protein Bond?
@@youngnailsinc I use a fine sanding band and I do apply protein bond to the natural nail. I just don't apply it to the nail before the top coat.
Can you use this with the extreme low order?
We don’t recommend using acrylic as dip powder as it is not as fine.
Why does it look so much brighter and shinier with the acrylic monomer ? With the other applications it looks really dark and not as sparkly.
Monomer completely wets and absorbs the powder and other applications are being absorbed differently, more bottom to top. This results in a different look.

@@youngnailsinc ok that's what I was wondering, thank you so much for replying! Have a blessed day!

Can I use the slick pour with the hard gel system? Like base gel or build gel?

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Do you put a clear coat of slick pour before the color? Or just 2 color pours over the nail? When using resin.
You definitely can if you want to. If you are using a darker color then yes we recommend a clear coat first to keep the mail from getting stained.

Conversion is for our regular polish and for slickpour.

If you are using the resin to apply dip powder then you do not use protein bond during prep. The step 2 doesn’t mix well with protein bond.
@@youngnailsinc can I activate the dip powder then swipe then protein bond then gel on top? Or does that still won’t work? Thanks again
What’s activator ??? For the first nail?
Activator is what helps to speed up the drying process
