Pro Tips
Make sure each layer is completely dry before applying the next for the best results.
Practice the floral design on paper first if you're unsure about your technique.
Use a small brush for more detailed designs to ensure precision.
Apply a thin layer of top coat regularly to maintain shine and prevent chipping.
