>>6047015You apply these waterslides on top of flat topcoat, normal ones would silver.
TomyTec solved the problem by making the waterslides super thin and sticky but because they are so thin you cannot apply them normally, so they put them on this film that keeps them together but you need to peel it off 24hr later.
When you apply them you need to roll qtip over them a few times to push all the water from under and to make the actual waterslides stick. If you don't the whole thing will come off when you peel off the film. I learned that the hard way by wasting a whole set of them (pic related).
Oh yeah, the letters and the numbers are separate waterslides, so you apply the numbers, wait 24hr, peel the film, apply letters, wait 24hr, peel the film and try not to peel off the numbers in the process. Fun times.
