DND DC Gel Base 800 is the foundation coat of the DC system. It lays flat, holds the colour down, and is the reason a DC set reaches the wear figure DC publishes.
DC numbers its gels 800 for base and 900 for top. That is the pairing behind the DC colour range, which runs in 0.6 oz bottles rather than the 0.5 oz the regular DND line uses.
What it does
- Adhesion: gives the colour coat something to hold onto, which is what stops a set lifting at the sidewall in week two.
- Protects the plate: sits between pigment and nail, so staining and surface damage are reduced.
- Soaks off in acetone in under 15 minutes.
- Wear: supports a chip-resistant finish for up to 21 days.

- Prep: file to shape, push back the cuticle, buff off the shine and dehydrate the plate.
- Base gel: one thin coat of DND DC Gel Base 800, capped at the free edge, then cure, 30 seconds under LED, or 2 minutes under UV.
- Colour: two thin coats, curing between them.
- Top gel: one coat from your top bottle, capped and cured.
- Finish: remove the tacky layer if your top coat leaves one, then cuticle oil.
Who buys this one
- Techs running DND DC colour who want the matched base rather than a mixed system
- A new station being fitted out, where the gels are bought before the colour wall
- Replacing a bottle mid-season without changing what the rest of the set behaves like
How it compares
Against buying the top separately, the paired listing puts both gels in one order. Against a bulk bottle, the 0.5 oz size is the right buy while you are still deciding whether the line stays on the bench.
Stocked alongside the DND and DC base and top gels, the DC gel and lacquer range and DND, DC and DIVA shades.
