>>7038778I don't recommend Pledge, since it isn't disponible where I am. Brand do matter, cheap shit will get thicker much quicker, but as long as it's clear nail polish, they act all the same for me (tested most of the major brand here, that's around 7 different one).
As for Pledge being simpler, I don't know about that. I can't talk of the practical aspects, but when I did my research to get some , I found out there's several version of Pledge, different brand names depending on countries, nearly identical bottles for different products (some kind of scrubber that had no effect as a thickening agent), that kind of shit.
Pledge might be better for figures, since it's thinner, but I only use it for models, so I don't see a reason to not use nail polish.
