Thanks for the tip Angela. I know last year I had bright polish on for a week+ when I attended Fantasia Fair and had a stain on each finger when I tried to remove the polish. I checked the internet and tried all sorts of things to remove the stain. Nothing worked like using Clorax and denture cleaner after soaking the nails. I was getting nervous and eventually went in drab to a local nail salon and asked for help saying I went to a early Halloween party. They used a Dremel like tool to burnish the nails and it cleared up the problem. Since then I have used a clear base coat before using any polish. Huggs, Jan
