Unhappy Airbrush Newbie - Solution Cost

I searched this site and was unable to find any information about this. About how much should I expect to pay per gallon for airbrush solution? I have only used one supplier up until this point, and I wasn't sure I was getting a good price, but then I called Norvell directly, and the price the rep quoted me was 50% more than what I have been paying. Since I have no experience with other companies, I'm not sure what a good price is. Help please?!?

Re: Airbrush Newbie - Solution Cost

in my travels I have found solution as cheap as $69.00 a gallon. Warning Becareful with CHEAP solution it has a tendency to turn you orange. It doesn't matter how affordable the solution is if people won't come back because they look like umpa loompas. Call and get as many suppliers to send you free samples and do a blind test and see what you like best. Hope this helps

I'm not sure it has been so long since I watched the video. Usually I have the client do a series of somersaults and spin like an Ice skater. I get great coverage. :)

Are your jlb initials by marriage?
