Can you use this to remove gel polish?

I have never used gel polish, but this remover does contain acetone, so I think it should remove it.

I wouldn't recommend it - the best thing I have bought that removes gel polish is pure acetone and I just buy it at our local Walgreens - I think it runs around $5

I've never used gel polish, so I can't tell you if this remover will work on it. Sorry!

It is removed with regular polish remover. You can use it over regular nail polish.

Absolutely not! This is not regular polish, it is gel. You MUST use either an LED lamp or UV lamp that is specifically for gel polish. You must also use gel color (if you want color on the nails as well) and not just regular nail polish. Also, there is a special residue remover to use once you are done that gets rid of the sticky stuff left on your nails after all the steps are complete. This product won't air dry at all.

Any type of Gel Polish will not be cured without an UV lamp. Orly Shade Shifter may be used over a regular polish but it must be cured (dried) under a sort of UV lamp and to remove it any brand of Gel polish remover should do the job.

It will remove the gel polish. You will have to pour some in a small bowl and soak, just check and when the polish begins to wrinkle up take a tissue to wipe off.

It works well with any gel polish. I always use the 90 second setting, and after all coats wipe with alcohol to take away the tackiness.

This works perfectly for shellac. I have no personal experience with gel so I can't answer that question. Shellac is expensive but worth it. I routinely have it on my nails for 3 weeks

I've personally never tried gel polish before, but from what I read online, you must use a thinner specifically for gel polish in order to thin them.

Yes. Just leave them under 2 minutes instead of 1 when you use the gel polish.

Yes, I actually use it with IBD gel polish. All gel polishes work on the same principle, uv light cured.

It will work on any nail polish. Gel polish will not dry at all if not used in one of these but any nail polish will work.

I don't recommend it with gel polish, as it could ripple. But its a option incase you just want to set regular polished nails or toes, for faster dry times.

No. It's not a 'hard' gel polish. It's like any other 'regular' base coat or top coat. Easily removed with acetone or non acetone nail polish removers.

My wife has only used it on regular nail polish so I do t know if it would work on gel polish. I would call a nail salon and ask them

Yes as long it says gel polish use LED LAMP. It will say use with lamp. You can use regular polish and put the top clear coat on, but it won't stay on as long. A trick I have found to taking off the Polish is when you are ready to take off the polish, apply a couple of coats of clear top coat and cure under the lamp and use cotton balls with alcohol on them to dry them. You will be able to peel the polish off without peeling any of your nail. It comes off in one piece. Nails are not thin and easy to get off. Enjoy your lamp and try different polishes that use a lamp.

I agree with what the other people have written. I just want to add that gel polish makers are starting to put kits out for sale to remove the gel. It's the same stuff, just more convenient. Putting the cotton pads and foil on is the best method IMHO. I didn't have as much success with the acetone in a bowl
