Switching solutions whilst mobile tanning

[x Tiger Jo x]

Hi everyone. Im just wondering, when you do mobile tanning what do you do when you have been to spray your first client with say an 8% of solution and then you go to your next client and she wants a 10%, do you spray the gun on kitchen roll till all the 8% of solution comes out before you use the 10%? Because you cant mix solutions can you? Or does this not matter. Hope this makes sense to you and doesn't sound stupid? Ha. Thanks for any advice

personally i think if your using the same brands it should be fine to just switch solutions and spray out the leftover solution from the previous client. I wouldn't really have one client after the other with spray tanning though, so i usually clean my gun between uses.. someone correct me if im wrong though! hth

Hi,

I'm a mobile tech & I have 3 cups for my gun, 1 for each % of solution.

All I do is is if I have appointments straight after each other or a party, I change to the solution I need, put the lid on the other cup and store it and then I sort everything out when I get back home.

I always make sure the gun is spraying properly before I start on the client so most of the old solution left in the hose is sprayed through.

If I didn't have a spare cup with me, I empty the solution back into the bottle (Carefully). I do this inside the tent incase of any spills so I don't make a mess in the clients house, but it's a lot easier to just have spare cups.
