I'm having problems filing/the edge looks unclean.

If you are having problems filing your Maniko nails or the edge looks frayed, we would like to help you. Here are some tips to achieve a clean and precise nail edge:

1. Harden the Maniko Nails first and then file them down. The hardened strips are often easier to file. Proceed as follows: Shorten the strips with nail scissors after sticking them on and leave them about 1-2 mm above the edge of the nail, cure the strips for 1 minute under the Maniko UV LED lamp, then file them down to the appropriate length.
2. Use the finer side of the nail file or an additional buffer file to gently file down the edge of your Maniko nails. Always start from the outside and file towards the middle. This will help you avoid fraying and achieve a clean appearance. Always file in one direction and avoid back-and-forth movements.

3. Make sure to perform the filing movements evenly and gently. Avoid applying too much pressure to minimize the risk of damage to the strip.

4. Finally, to smooth the edges and achieve an even shape, you can use a buffer. This helps to remove imperfections and achieve a smooth, even edge.

By using these filing techniques and proceeding carefully, you can achieve a beautiful result and keep your Maniko nails looking professional.
