Hi everyone, Im new to spray tanning have used my gun about 3 or 4 times now. Today when I went to spray a friend the tan was not spraying out of the gun, then I turned the machine off and the tan spurted all over the place! Is it broken or blocked? I clean it out after every use with warm water.

Sounds like you could have an airlock in there somewhere. When you next turn it on, squeeze the trigger rapidly (a few short bursts) while holding couch roll on the end so it doesn't go all over the place! this should get it going again.
If all else fails, ring your supplier.

sounds to me like you have removed and cleaned the rubber pick up tube and put it back on the wrong hole ? it needs to be on the one closest to the trigger If your using a maximist machine this applies to either the 5008 or maximist light the new latest version has spring clips on the pick up tube to prevent this happy to help x x
Which machine is it you have ??

When you bought your equipment did you buy training as well? Did the company offer a back up support system if things were going wrong? It could be a few things, the pick up tube, a blockage, not connecting the hose properly? Take it to bits, clean and then put everyting back together step by step.
