i really want to get a gun with a heat option any ideas?
my current gun is soooo cold i have a minimist and get on well with it so dont need an expensive heavy duty one!

oh and i use tandare :).. not sure if that makes a difference!

thanks!! xx

I think you are searching for the impossible Leighbee...... just try this little experiment.

Purse your lips and blow onto the back of your hand, you will find the air is cold as its forced through the small hole of your pursed lips. Now try making a breath with your mouth open on to the back of your hand and you will find the air is warm. This is what happens when you spray through all spray guns, the tiny hole where the solution is forced through by the air in the compressor will always be cold even though the air in the hose is actually warm, it is only once you take the gun off the hose you will feel the warmness of the air sent from the compressor through the hose.

HTH :hug:

oooo!! i am very impressed got in before me with the exact correct answer :lol::lol: i did toy with the idea of a double turbine machine one with a glorified hair drier attached to it so that as you spray you dry as well and blow warm air on the client:lol::lol: great idea but in principle it blew the spray pattern every where and wasnt what i expected :rolleyes::rolleyes: i would have gave you a rep point for your reply but apparently i need to spread the love with other geeks as i have already bigged you up !! saw your video of gun cleaning as well very good:hug:
 
well i used one today just cant remember the name of it!
it has a heat setting! my gun is ice cold and this was just luke warm like normal air!
ill google it as i know the science of it but one is actually out there!?
 
I know St Tropez offer a heated tanning equiptment now and have for a while, don't know the details or much about it but it was casually talked about at a seminar they did in Manchester.

Thanks Steve ;) :hug:
 
The hvlp 700 series machine also known as the vip/super pig/piggy has a heat function but I wouldn't say its much use to be honest, by the time its heating up you've finished applying the tan!

I have a heated machine and like people have already said, it blows out warm air until I spray through - waste of time really lol
