DARK 16 stamping plate

Description 

DARK PLATE - metal plate for creating designs in the 'stamping' technique. It features deep and clear patterns for easy work. The large selection of designs allows you to quickly and easily create any pattern.

DESCRIPTION

• High-quality engraving for easy work;
• Allows you to create even complex designs without drawing skills;
• Recommended to use together with DARK STAMPING POLISH and DARK Stamping Tool.

HOW TO USE

1. Perform a manicure and apply a base/gel or color, cure in a lamp;
2. If there is a sticky layer - remove it using DARK GEL CLEANSER;
3. Apply polish to the plate, scrape off the excess with a scraper and transfer the design to the stamp;
4. Transfer the design from the stamp to the nail with a rolling or flat motion;
5. Top coat (if the top runs off the design - apply a thin layer of clear base first, and then the top).

WHY THE DESIGN MIGHT NOT TRANSFER WELL TO THE STAMP

1. The polish should not be thickened; use enough polish on the brush to distribute it over the design;
2. Apply polish to the plate with 1-2 strokes; the longer you apply it, the greater the chance it will not transfer well, as it dries in the air;
3. Work with the scraper at an angle of approximately 45 degrees, without pressing too hard, to avoid 'squeezing' the polish out of the design;
4. Scrape quickly (2-4 strokes are enough), without sweeping across the entire plate;
5. Then quickly put down the scraper and grab the stamp (remember, we don’t have extra time when working with polishes);
6. Transfer the design to the stamp with a gentle rolling motion; DO NOT TRY TO PRESS the stamp strongly against the plate, as the more you press, the more polish will remain on the plate.
