1. Shake nail polish thoroughly.
2. Using the nail polish brush, carefully paint new letters on the keys that are blank or the ones that you would like to be larger and more visible.
3. Try to do a light coat at first if possible so that it dries more quickly.
4. If needed, do a 2nd coat.
5. Wait until it dries thoroughly before using it.
