My review is entitled "Another one..." for two reasons:
1. I am also on the "what was the first reviewer thinking?" list.
2. I have found another product I know I can never live without.
I recently ordered a lot of older, discontinued (or, as Essie.com states, "no longer available") Essie lacquers from Amazon. Since I knew they were older, I also knew some of them would be thicker than others. My solution: Seche Restore.
The Restore is amazing. I use it every time I do my nails to thin the polish to go on smoother and thinner, as one review suggests. It did awesome thinning out 3 of the older Essie polishes (Blanc, Golden Nuggets, and Garnet).
Here are general steps I used to gauge the amount of Restore to use:
1. Get a newer polish and just twist and pull the brush out of the polish. Watch how many drops of polish fall off within a few seconds. For example, I usually had 2 drop off within 5 seconds with a new, fresh bottle.
2. Compare that "drop time" with the bottle that needs restoring. My Essie Garnet, for example, had 1 drop fall off within 5 seconds.
3. Fill up a WHOLE STOPPER FULL of Restore and drop HALF into the Garnet / older polish.
4. Spin the Garnet between hands (shaking polish bottles introduces air into the polish which will cause bubbly nails, leading to chipping), for about 20-30 seconds, then check the consistency.
5. If it had 2 drops within 5 seconds, I knew I was good to go. If not, I added the other half of the stopper to the polished, and repeat step 4.
That's what I've gathered from reading other reviews and from my own experiences. I hope that helps others that are unsure how to use this wonderful product! Happy manicures to everyone!!

I have to say I'm surprised about the previous review. I use the Seche restore every time I do my own manicure. It works so great to thin all my nail polish and the Seche Vite. I've found that the thinner the polish is, the harder it dries and there's no bubbles on the nails. I've actually brought several really old bottles of polish with colors I love back to life. Between keeping my polish in the fridge and using Restore, I keep polish for years and it still works great. The only thing to keep in mind is that the Restore does evaporate, so keep the top on tight and don't buy in bulk

I'm also not sure why one wouldn't like this product... It does its job exactly as it should. Also works well with other polish brands. Helps restore old, dry, tacky polishes to like new consistancy. Definitely a good product to have on hand.
Tips: Try a few drops at a time. You can always add more but you can't take away too much. Its also best not to shake your bottles but to gently roll between the palms of your hands. If you do chose to shake them, wait a while before use since shaking bottles causes airbubbles which makes bubbles show on your nails.

so glad I found this to use with my favorite Seche Vite top coat when it started to thicken! It restored my 1/2 used bottle of top coat to it's former performance when it was first... Read more

Makes it last
This restorer works well but only with the Seche Vite quick dry. I tried using nail polish remover and it doesn't work the same. A definite must have.

Came packed well. Have used regular nail polish thinner in my seche vite before with unsatisfactory results. This works! Thanks!

Does the thing
This product does exactly what it is supposed to do - makes the nail polish thinner. Will buy more in the future.

Does what it is supposed to
Add some to the hardened nail polish and Seche Restore makes it more liquid, exactly what I was looking for. Inexpensive, does the job, and was deliver within less than a week.

OK
It doesn't really completely restore the top coat. It still stay a little thick but it's really good for other polish brands. It does help you get more out of your polish. Read more

It's good
It works well, but there's not very much of it. After I use it in my Seche Vite, it's still not it's original consistency.
