Rated 5 out of 5Â by Misty Really Works
With this product I am able to do most things within a minute of applying it. It prevents smudges, nicks, and marks on freshly painted nails, reduces chipping over time, ald leaves a great shine. If I get a chip on one of my nails after a couple of days, I mix it with new polish and fill in the gap. You can't tell the difference. The polish lasts longer with this top coat and I sometimes add a second coat after a couple of days for further protection and shine. Very reasonable price.

I picked this up when to looking for an alternative to my Seche Vite top coat, which is quite possibly the best there is, but also contains harmful ingredients. Insta-Dri is definitely a lot safer to use and less expensive. While not "equal" to Seche Vite, it is most definitely a worthwhile replacement that I love to use and would definitely recommend to anyone. FYI: SH Insta-Dri FAR EXCEEDS the performance of INM's Out The Door Super Fast Drying Top Coat.

This is the most amazing product. It gives your nails a salon perfect finish anytime. I sometimes will reapply it a few times and have had manicures remain perfect for up to two weeks.

First, any advanced at doing manicures, on yourself or others, knows that you need to refresh your topcoat every 2/3 days if you leave it on 1 week. Every other day works best. All topcoats wear off, even this. But it doesn't nick or chip. It gets cracks if too many layers are used and/or the top coat is left on too long. I've tested it's limits. Don't go over 5 coats and don't leave it on after 1 week. It cracks and gets brittle.
That said, it really is perfect for a good, tough top coat. It can handle a decent beating with 2 complete, but not thick, coats. It's glossy, smooth, and gives a clean professional look. If you get the polish on your fingers/on the sides, it'll peel off easy but won't ruin your mani.
This dries the lower layers completely. Here's how to get it to work for you. First, make sure each coat of paint, base coat, first solid color/french tip, and accent colors dry almost completely. Give the top most color/coat 2-4 minutes after painting. Then use this top coat in complete, even strokes. Don't over-load the brush. Paint the nailbeds and brush over the edge/tip to cover completely. The nail tips wear out the easiest due to typing, getting banged up, and dragged on surfaces without us realizing it.
When you do it right the top coat should give a nice click sound when you tap one nail bed with a nail tip. It won't smudge, smear, or imprint. I've used it for almost a year. I like it better than the other acrylic top coat Sally Hansen has.

This top coat is definetely better than every other top coat I've tried. It lasted abt 3 days before it started to fade at the tips and by day 5, it was time to re-do the polish. It was dry to the touch after 30 secs but be careful because the polish underneath is NOT dry. Overall I am pleased with this product.

This is the best topcoat i have ever used. I used it for years now, and nothing can compare. I like the thicker brush, it goes on smoothly and dries very quickly. It also has a nice shine and protects my color from chips and cracks. Can't get any better for the money!
