How should clear coat go on?

Answer by  Pineapple7 (260)

After painting nails with two coats of nail color, wait 1-2 minutes before applying one coat of clear polish. This will add shine, and prevent chipping of polish.

There are two different clear coats that manicurists typically use. One is the base coat, and it goes on before you apply two layers of color. The second clear coat is a top coat, which goes on after the two coats of color have had a little time to dry. This keeps your manicure shiny and helps resist chipping.

Clear coat should go on like any other paint. As smooth as possible and kind of heavy. Slight texture can be cut and buffed out but runs should be avoided.

It should go on clear! Apply only one coat so you get the natural look that a clear polish is meant for.
