Abstract

A nail polish or nail polish/enamel composition is applied to imperfections, errors, distortions or porosities in the model. The composition is thus used to correct the model's shape. The composition can be added at room temperature, and avoids the need to utilize high temperatures in the process of building the model. The nail polish or nail polish/enamel compositions may be utilized to add jewelry design elements to the model.
