Vicente Amigos nail hardener

I was wandering back from lunch in the albaicin today when I bumped in to a guitarist who I know to be a friend of Vicente Amigo. We sat and had a coffee whilst he put hardener on his nails. What is that you are putting on? I asked and was told that it was the same stuff that Vicente uses to harden his nails.
Its only available in a small Pharmacy in Cordoba and I'm assured that this is where vicente gets his nail hardener. I tried it and it doesnt seem much different to any other hardener...but I'm sure some die hards out there will be interested to obtain some...plus it will be funny for the Pharmacy to get a sudden in explicable rush of overseas orders for nail hardener. I tried to get a photo but I couldnt get the label in focus so it says

You should find somebody who works near there to keep an eye open and get a photo of him walking in. Then get the pharmacy on Myspace and connect it up with all the guitarists in Spain and elsewhere.

Does the shop next door say "Juan Martin" on it?

That's disappointing. Did you get any info on his hair products?

RE: Vicente Amigos nail hardener (in reply to Pimientito)

there must be some reason why he prefers that specific polish over the hundreds of others out there.

maybe he shops at juana martin as well. or his drug dealer is around the corner.

this is hilarious! you guys crack me up

someone should get down there and bribe someone behind the counter so next time vicente goes in he picks up a bottle and they rush up and say "i think that bottle is out of date" and take it off him so he has to take another. Then they can sell the bottle of nail hardener that vicente has actually touched!
