What It Does
TCG Rhinestone Adhesive is a thick, clear gel formulated specifically for securing crystals, gems, charms, and embellishments to nail surfaces.
It provides superior hold, flexibility, and long-lasting shine without dulling the sparkle of rhinestones. Designed for both small and large embellishments, it cures under LED or UV for a strong, durable bond.
TCG Rhinestone Adhesive Instructions
Application
- Apply TCG Rhinestone Adhesive.
- Use a dotting tool, brush, or wax tip to apply a small amount of adhesive where the rhinestone or charm will be placed.
- For larger gems or 3D nail art, apply a slightly thicker bead to ensure full contact and secure hold.
- Place rhinestones.
- Using a TCG Rhinestone Picker or wax tool, position the crystals carefully onto the wet adhesive.
- Press gently to seat them into place without sinking or flooding the edges.
- Cure.
- Cure under TCG LED/UV lamp for 60–90 seconds (or 2 minutes under UV) to fully harden the adhesive.
- For large or heavy charms, cure an additional 30 seconds to ensure a solid bond.
- Optional reinforcement.
- For extra durability, apply a small amount of adhesive or TCG Stain Resistant Top Coat around the base of the crystals (not over the top) and cure again.
Finishing
- Final seal and cleanse.
- If desired, apply TCG Stain Resistant Top Coat to the rest of the nail (avoiding the rhinestones) and cure for 60 seconds.
- Wipe if necessary, then apply TCG Cuticle Protector Oil or TCG Pineapple Cuticle Oil to finish.
Removal
- File through the top coat and around the rhinestones until they loosen.
- Carefully lift off embellishments with a tool.
- Remove any remaining adhesive by filing or buffing.
- Proceed with standard gel or builder removal process.
Pro Tips
- Apply adhesive only where needed — excess product may flood the rhinestones and reduce sparkle.
- Cure thoroughly to ensure a strong, flexible bond.
- Avoid soaking — file off instead to preserve nail health.
- Use TCG Stain Resistant Top Coat to protect surrounding areas from dulling or discolouration.
- Store in a cool, dark place and keep tightly sealed to prevent thickening.
- Can be used as a thick design gel for chrome to be applied over and then add TCG Stain Resistant Top Coat.
