I watched another video on using powders a few days ago and the person was doing gold over a yellowish base color. It did make the gold look a little brighter than gold over black. Makes me wonder if silver would be brighter over gray. Definitely going to try some of your designs. They're simple and elegant!

I know this video is a few months old but I actually want to add that just using matte top coat does not work at all for me and a lot of over techs. The only think that has worked for me is doing a layer of matte top coat and then buffing it before doing the chrome design. If not, the chrome still sticks everywhere. Maybe it depends on the brand. Buffing the layer will help a lot tho!

Great tip on the matte! I don't use a no wipe topcoat, I just remove the dispersion layer with alcohol and then buff in my powders. I assumed nail art like that would have to be done by removing the powder where you don't want it with a qtip in alcohol or something obnoxious. I have MANY ideas now lol

I've noticed that using a top coat underneath doesn't last long for me or other techs I've worked with at salons when doin a full-coverage chrome nail. It starts chipping the next day so I started using a base instead to apply the chrome powder on top and then seal it with top coat. For me, it stays on with no chipping on the edges.

Not sure if this is helpful as I just got my chrome powders but the manufacturer's direction said to only cure the topcoat layer that you use before applying the powder for 10- 20 seconds ( depending on the power of the lamp) because if cured too long it would be hard to apply the powders and too short I wouldn't get the mirror effect.

I’m learning and started with the Beetles full kit. I’ve been asking questions with the company though no reply. I did figure out why my topcoat brush crystallized and the brush hardened… took awhile to catch on. after the same thing happened to another bottle I saw what I did. I had gotten to close to the light, the cure light. I used the light to see details when polishing and that tiny bit of light did it. Maybe I can soak the brush in The strong remover and save it.

there is two more things.. the matte top coat also helps to keep the top coat lines clear, other undergrounds they flow a bit... it's also worth a try to buff the nail instead of using the matte top coat, I noticed the pigment is on their much less than on the matte top coat and that's useful if you want to topcoat the whole nail after the chrome 😊

No wipe is a top coat that doesn’t leave a “sticky layer” after it’s been cured. It will say it on the bottle “no wipe” so you will no you don’t need to wipe the nail with a little alcohol when you’re done :) Also, wipe off the nail with lint free nail wipes. So you don’t accidentally get lint in your design :)
