DC #400 Foil Gel Base is DND's gel for transfer foil designs: you cure it for 60 seconds and the foil print then sticks to it when pressed onto the nail. DND made it for its own Foil Transfer prints and pairs it with DC #800 base and DC #900 top.

Questions
Do I cure the foil gel base before applying foil?
Yes. DND's directions cure it for 60 seconds, then the foil is pressed straight onto the cured layer.
Can I use another brand's base and top coat?
DND says other brands' base and top coats can be used in the base, top and sealing steps with varied success, and recommends DC #800 and #900 for the best result.
Why is my foil transfer patchy?
Usually the foil was not pressed down firmly enough or the layer under it was uneven. Our foil transfer gel guide goes through the common causes and fixes.
