The dot effect is called "fish eye". It's a common problem in automotive paint application when the paint is too thin. Your color consistency should be like skim milk. If you can load your mixing brush with the color, and touch the side of the cup, and you see a translucent veil as it goes back into the cup, then it's about right. Spraying on a paper towel doesn't really give you a good indication that the color is mixed correctly. Since gel polishes are cleaned up using ISO alcohol, I suggest trying a 90%+ ISO alcohol to thin your polish and see if there is a better result.

@femmefatale6409 ай бұрын
is it possible to use alcohol ?
@studio_onyx9 ай бұрын
@femmefatale640 I've since learned we should not be putting gel polish and alcohol/acetone into an airbrush. It's extremely dangerous to make gel polish airborne. It has uncured acrylate and dispersing it into the air means that we and our clients will breathe it in. It is highly toxic and can cause extreme allergic reactions. Don't do it with this method.
@nataliarn68887 ай бұрын

No alcohol does not break the gel down and the acetone evaporates before it hurts the enhancement .

I had no. Idea you could use gel polish in the airbrush. I have 2 different ones I just stopped using because it was a pain to clean. I have to take the needle out & try to not bend it. It was just a hassle. Mine has the air compressor. I like this one much better

I also heard about this but other than the one video from LE nails there’s no science behind it so idk if it’s true!?!
