try stripping the gun down completely, bit by bit, running each part under hot running water, then drying with kitchen roll. give each part a spray of good old WD40, (it works a treat), before putting it all back 2geva.
I have T200 machine & am very happy with it, I use both Tantrick & Suntana solutions. Both will send you free samples so give it a go. Suntana have 3 fragrances, coconut 8%, cherry 10% & chocolate 12%, my clients love it.

Just remember a client must take good care of their tan to get the most out of it, moisturise,moisturise,moisturise.

I clean it after use each evening in that i spray hot water through it. I take it all apart once a week, the front and the pin etc and wash that all through thoroughly.

Probably not shaking the bottle then. Cant really remember if i did or not.

Also i'm not convinced that people are doing what they should before and after the tan, although they are telling me they are.

Thanks Girls

I'll make sure i shake the bottle. Plus the area trainer is coming over thursday to see what i'm up to so i'll have a chat with her too.

Thanks again

Glad you have found a conclusion of sorts hun, the best thing to do if you suspect your clients are not following correct pre treatment procedures would be to tan somone who you know will deffinitly follow pre treatment (a friend or partner etc) and tan them....see how it comes out....chances are it will come out grand and you will gain confidence in that it wasnt perhaps something you as the therapist were doing. Should it come out patchy then you can start to trouble shoot, look at where its going patchy etc and even post another thread so we can all help again. Good luck and let us know how you get on xxx
