What You'll Learn
Using Rapid Remover
Using the Rapid Remover is one of the many ways to remove Sistaco nail powder. The Rapid Removal Hub is designed to use the power of steam to safely remove your nail shade without soaking. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to use the Rapid Remover:
Step 1:
Begin by gently buffing away your Top Coat. Your nail colour should look mattified. This step is crucial as it breaks the top coat's seal, allowing the steam to penetrate and lift the nail powder more effectively.
Step 2:
Pour 5-40ml of 100% acetone into the Rapid Removal Hub. The Hub is specifically designed for Sistaco's Mineral Bond system, and the acetone-infused steam helps lift the nail application effectively.
Step 3:
Turn on the Rapid Removal Hub using the middle lower ON button. Small square lights will flash, indicating that the remover is heating up. Wait until the 'Steam' button lights up and you hear a single beep, signalling that it is ready for use.
Step 4:
Insert your fingers into the top of the system, as shown in the instruction booklet. Grip the top slightly to allow the steam to reach your nails better. Be careful not to place your fingers too low to avoid burning.
Step 5:
Once the red indicator END light turns on, the steam process is complete. You will hear two beeps. Remove your fingers and gently push off the nail application using the Sistaco 3-in-1 nail tool. Do this immediately, as the nail application can harden again if you wait too long.
Step 6:
After removing the nail application, wash your nails and use Sistaco Elixir to nourish and improve nail health and growth.
The Rapid Remover is a quick and effective way to remove Sistaco nail powder. Always follow the instructions carefully and take precautions to avoid any potential harm or damage to your nails.

Buffing the top coat
Begin by gently buffing the surface of your nail colour. Use a soft buffing block or a fine-grit nail file and apply light pressure in a slow, circular motion. Take your time with this step, as you want to avoid putting too much pressure on your nails, which can cause thinning or damage. Work until the top coat is removed and your nail colour looks mattified.
If you are using the Sistaco Rapid Removal system, you can skip the buffing step and proceed directly to the next steps outlined in their instructions. However, if you are using other removal methods, such as acetone or non-acetone nail polish removers, buffing the top coat is crucial.
When buffing, it is important to ensure that you only buff the nail colour and avoid buffing the actual nail surface. This is because buffing the nail plate can cause thinning and weaken your nails over time. Focus on gentle, light strokes, and always buff in the same direction to avoid causing micro-scratches on your nails.
After buffing, your nails should feel smooth to the touch, and the top coat should be visibly broken down. If there are still areas with a glossy finish, you can gently go over them again with the buffing block until the entire nail surface is mattified.
Once you have finished buffing, it is important to follow up with the subsequent steps in the removal process. This typically involves applying a remover solution, such as the Sistaco Rapid Remover or a non-acetone nail polish remover, and then gently pushing away the nail shade using a suitable tool, such as the Sistaco 3-in-1 nail tool. Remember to wash your hands and nails thoroughly after removal and to apply a nourishing nail oil or moisturiser to maintain nail health.

Using Erase Pads
Sistaco Erase Assist Pads simplify the manicure removal process while being gentle on your nails. To use them, start by slipping your finger into the envelope, ensuring that the pad covers your entire nail. Leave the pad on for about 5 minutes to allow the formula to work effectively. After this, carefully remove the Erase Pad from your nail. Using the 3-in-1 nail tool, gently push off the softened manicure. Finally, apply Sistaco Nail Elixir for healthy, shiny, and clean nails.
The Erase Pads work great in conjunction with the Rapid Remover. They are also perfect for removing excess product from the edges of your nails and skin. You can stretch the pad to fit any nail bed and then wrap the ends under your fingernail, overlapping under the nail. The Erase Pads can be used multiple times.

Using 100% acetone
To remove Sistaco nail powder, you can use 100% acetone. This method is recommended by Sistaco themselves.
Firstly, gently buff away the top coat of your nail colour. Then, saturate a cotton ball with 100% acetone and secure it to your nail with a small piece of tin foil. Leave the cotton ball on your nail for approximately 2-5 minutes. After this, you can wipe away any residue.
There are many 100% acetone products available on the market, including those from Pronto, Onyx, and Kiara Sky. These products are designed to remove nail polish, gel polish, acrylics, and other nail enhancements. They are marketed as quick and gentle, with some products claiming to be odourless.
It is important to note that some people have reported issues with nail damage and irritation when using Sistaco products and removers. It may be beneficial to try a non-lamp method with a traditional base and top coat nail polish, as this can be removed with traditional nail polish remover.

Using a non-Sistaco remover
While Sistaco recommends using its own products to remove its nail powder, some customers have had success with non-Sistaco removers.
One user on productreview.com.au said they used OPI Repair Mode to repair damage to their nails caused by Sistaco nail products. Another user on the same website said they were mixing and matching with other UV base coats.
If you want to try removing Sistaco nail powder with a non-Sistaco remover, it may be best to try a non-toxic UV base coat or a product designed to repair nail damage. However, keep in mind that Sistaco does not recommend using non-Sistaco removers, and some customers have complained that their attempts to remove Sistaco nail powder with non-Sistaco removers have damaged their nails.
If you choose to use a non-Sistaco remover, be sure to follow the instructions for that specific product. You may also want to consider doing a patch test on one nail first to see how your nails react to the product.
- Begin by gently buffing away your top coat.
- Apply a remover to the nail shade.
- Allow the remover to loosen the nail shade.
- Gently push the nail shade away or slide an orange stick under the colour to lift it off.
- Wash your hands thoroughly and dry them.
- Apply a nail elixir to improve nail health and growth.
