Last night was with a group that are close friends with Miguel Ortiz, the main inventor. They explained the invention came about because Miguel did not want to wait for his wife to get back from the beauty salon -- three hour process, including the manicure/pedicure. The new nail painting process apparently is quick -- they spoke of 5-10 minutes. A machine reads the size of the nail before painting.
The group said that was is outstanding is that this is only patent No. 7, maybe they were wrong because El Caribe story says it is No. 6. Anyway, they took it abroad and it checked out in Spain. Last night they commented it had checked out in the US, maybe they have begun the process already….
Was told they worked on it for two years to invent and get it approved. It was cleared so that is why they are on a road show. Onapi is promoting them because they are proud the DR has another patented invention.
Now they have to find a buyer… Sally Hansen?
I wish I had one of those machines. It would sell more nail polish because now since it takes so long to get a manicure people want to keep it for as long as possible. If it only takes 5 m inures, one could change colours all the time!
