3. Use a dotting tool to pick up a bead of Gem Gel from the bottom of the jar and apply it to the center of the oval. (Note: Do not mix the separated product; the Kyocera Opal flecks should rest on the bottom.) Once the gel has self-leveled, cure it for 30 seconds under an LED light or one minute under a UV light.
