Why techs stock it
- Gold-bottle DC formula: DC is DND's premium line, with richer pigment and a glossier finish than the classic range.
- Separate numbering: DC uses its own shade numbers, so 098 will not clash with a classic DND code.
- Opaque in two coats: a cream finish covers the nail in two thin coats.

How to apply the gel
- Start clean: the nail must be fully prepped and free of oil.
- DC base first: DC needs a base coat, so lay DND DC Base Gel and cure it.
- Two thin coats: apply DND DC #098 Aqua Gray thin, cap the free edge, cure each coat 30 to 60 seconds under LED.
- Finish: seal with DND DC Top Gel and cure.
Every bottle you need for these steps is in the box, so the base, colour and top all come from the same DND DC line.
Who it suits
- Fall sets: blue is high contrast against most skin tones, so a clean cuticle line matters.
- Pedicures, paired with a silver chrome accent.
- Clients who ask for blue by name or by number 098.
Which option to choose
If you already own a DND DC base and top gel, the duo listing for #098 adds just the colour. If you do not, the combo saves ordering the base and top separately.
Check the shade first
Paint a swatch stick and hold it next to the client's hand before the full set. Screens and lamps both shift how a colour looks.

Four 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) bottles: DND DC Base Gel, the DND DC #098 Aqua Gray gel polish, the matching DND DC #098 Aqua Gray lacquer and DND DC Top Gel.
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DC #098 Aqua Gray as a gel and a lacquer with the same shade number, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure match. The lacquer air-dries, the gel needs an LED or UV lamp.
What colour is Aqua Gray?+
DND DC #098 Aqua Gray is a blue. Screens show colour differently, so check a swatch stick against the client's skin before the full set.
How long do I cure each coat?+
Under an LED lamp, cure each thin colour coat 30 to 60 seconds; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. Thin coats cure all the way through, thick ones do not.
