How to Paint Over Acrylic Nails Using Regular Nail Polish?
You can paint over acrylic nails, but use a special acrylic-friendly polish to avoid damaging the nail. Clean and dry the acrylic surface before applying polish to ensure a strong bond. Gently buff the acrylic surface to create a rough texture for better polish adhesion. Apply a thin layer of clear base coat to protect the acrylic and promote polish adhesion.
