Sorry if this is a stupid question??? How do you store yours? I bought a TS50 that arrived yesterday. With the gun I have 3 spare cups with screw on lids. Now this got me thinking. Can I put a different solution in each cup then lable the cup or do I have to keep the solution in the bottle it comes in? I'm only using Zen-Tan at the moment but it's a thought for the future. The Zen-Tan comes in a light proof bottle so wondered if the cups would be suitable to store solution as there not light proof. It would save a lot of hassle if you could just fill cup up screw lid on and leave it till it runs low. Thanks for advice given in advance :-)

If you do store it in the cups you need to make sure they are air tight as the solution being open to air will cause it to go off a lot sooner and this will result i the client going green. The cups are great if you are really busy with tanning and you use different strengths, as you could decant enough for a few tans and not have to keep pouring back out of the cups if you have clients that prefer different depths. Another point just remember where you store your solution in weather like this as a too hot temperature will increase the risk of your solution decreasing its shelf like or the solution going off or going green.

I do store mine in cups because I use a fue different % ,it seems to work fine I fill them up to 200 mls and top them back up when I get down to 50 mls ,i think the less times you open your big bottle the better :-D
