DARK Stamping Plate Snake
The DARK PLATE is a high-quality metal plate designed for creating intricate nail designs using the stamping technique. It features deep, precise engravings for effortless application. With a wide variety of patterns, it allows for quick and easy nail art without the need for drawing skills.
DESCRIPTION:
- High-quality engraving ensures clean and precise transfers.
- Enables even complex designs without requiring artistic skills.
- Best used with DARK STAMPING POLISH and the DARK Stamping Tool.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
- Perform a manicure and apply a base coat, gel, or color, then cure it in a lamp.
- If a sticky layer remains, remove it using gel cleanser.
- Apply stamping polish onto the plate, scrape off the excess, and transfer the design to the stamp.
- Press the stamp onto the nail using a rolling or flattening motion to transfer the pattern.
- Seal the design with a top coat.
-
Tip: If the top coat spreads or distorts the design, first apply a thin layer of clear base, cure it, and then apply the top coat.
COMMON REASONS WHY THE PATTERN MAY NOT TRANSFER:
-
Thickened polish: Ensure the stamping polish is fresh and fluid. Take a sufficient amount with the brush to cover the design properly.
-
Slow application: Apply the polish in 1-2 quick movements—the longer it sits, the more likely it is to dry before transfer.
-
Scraper angle & pressure: Hold the scraper at approximately a 45-degree angle and avoid pressing too hard to prevent excessive polish removal.
-
Scraping technique: Work quickly with 2-4 firm strokes and avoid spreading the polish across the entire plate.
-
Stamping speed: Immediately after scraping, pick up the stamp without delay—stamping polish dries fast.
-
Stamping pressure: Transfer the design with a gentle rolling motion. Do not press the stamp too hard against the plate, as excessive pressure will cause more polish to remain on the plate instead of transferring.
