Acrylic Nails... White Tips or clear?

Last time i got acrylic nails they used a white tip. my friend gets the white painted on. which one is better?


Thanks!!Acrylic Nails... White Tips or clear?
The white tips will look good at first but once they grow out, or if you break one, they don't look so great. I would stay with the clear.Acrylic Nails... White Tips or clear?
Tips or Painting the white on, it's not done right. The right way is White Acrylic %26amp; Pink Acrylic. They put the white on first then they put the pink on. Nails Set, only put Clear Nail polish on. Salons %26amp; Spa's do them. They cost a little more, but you fill them once a month.

White tip grows out %26amp; looks goofy. Go with clear.
Just get the pink and white full set next time. They look better and the white tip does not turn yellow. It is a little more for the pink and white but is very worth it.
When I get acrylic nails put on I always get the white tip! I had the white painted once and within a few days it started to chip and look terrible.
White tips are classy - pink tips are youthful and more demure.
i think if the white is painted on, it looks more natural than if the white is already there.

Clear, drink-safe sealant for acrylic?

I'm going to be building a model of a cup I designed out of stacked, lasercut acrylic pieces (I'm taking a SolidWorks model, slicing it horizontally, and building the cup from those slices). Ideally, this cup will be actually useable, which would require that the acrylic be somehow sealed in a way that is both watertight and non-toxic.





I have had experience with using acrylic solvent to create strong bonds between pieces, and I think that I could make it watertight if I'm careful- but are there any toxic chemicals still present after the stuff dries?





The other way I've thought of is to use aquarium-grade silicon, since that is reasonably clear and is both watertight and nontoxic- but it's also very thick, and a thinner formula would be far better suited for my purposes.





Has anyone used one of these methods before? Does anyone know of any sealants that fit my needs?

Does a mural on a wall painted with acrylics need some kind of clear coat?

I am painting a mural on my daughter's wall with acrylic paints. Should I put some kind of clear protectant on it to keep it from being scraped off?Does a mural on a wall painted with acrylics need some kind of clear coat?
i always ';shallac'; every piece of work i do.


shallac it pretty much just a clear coat that comes in a spray can, its affordable and you can get it at any art store, it doesn't ruin the painting at all, it just makes it a little shiny


hope that helps! (-:Does a mural on a wall painted with acrylics need some kind of clear coat?
The problem with shellac it can yellow the colors





I use a water based polyurethane with UV protection in a matte finish-- ( Sikkens) so no shine

No, but you will need to prime it if you ever decide to paint over it.
