Sorry to be talking about this here...it seems like this site is about UV tanning and nothing more. Anyway, I live in Sweden and I would like to contact a company in the states which distributes (wholesale) spray tanning solution to europe. Has anyone any contact advice for me? Many thanks!!!!

Welcome to TanTalk. No problem posting your question here. Many of us have incorporated spray tanning into our salons. As far as shipping to Europe, I don't have any information. Hopefully someone else will post something that can help you. There has been much information posted on this site on sunless tanning. If you do a search you can find lots of information.

try Breeze products at 1-888-330-8570 they have a distributor in the UK that carries their solution . It would probably save you on freight and time. It was written up in Looking Fit last month. Good Luck

This is my first post! I've been a salon owner for nearly 20 yrs now and am excited about beginning with the spray tanning . I'll be ordering my start up kit in the next day or two. I'm considering the Paasche D-3000 with airbrush for starters. Does anyone have any recommendations otherwise? Do y'all think a spray gun would be better than the air-brush? What solution seems to be best? Some say one color for all people....others offer a choice of shades...HELPPPP!!!

Try www.sunless.com
It is a site devoted to information on sunless tanning. Great people on that site. They will all be happy to help you out. I just started using our HVLP...It is much faster then the airbrush . Passche is a good name, you should not have any problems with that choice.

Thanks Joanne....I went to sunless.com, but only found information on home type creams & lotions that are applied without an air-brush. I need these type of reviews for the Air-brush products. If I don't go with the HVLP type, do you prefer the air-brush or the spray gun with a regular compressor? I'm not finding much info on line about the HVLP but I'm sure the cost is way up there & at this point I want to start out under $500.

You are going to be hard pressed to get started for under $500 if that is to include solution and all supplies. I am not saying it can't be done but the quality of compressor and airbrush you get may discourage you into thinking you can't do this. The system I started with was about $650. I started with SafariAirBrush and have been pleased. Also, at sunless.com there is a section for airbrush tanning. I am now looking at HVLP equipment to increase my application time and reduce overspray.

Good Luck!

My wife and I bought a Tat-N-Tan system a few weeks ago. It does temporary airbrush tatoos as well as airbrush spray tanning . It has been a big hit. Four hours of work has earned as much as $300.00. The system is somewhat expensive, Like $2,000.00 but if you're the first in your area to purchase one the curiosity of the temp. tats will bring in several customers alone. They are very good about sending promotional information, sales leads, and advertising ideas. Also, they include a video to show you how to perform the tatoos and the tans. Customer service is always helpful. I think you can visit them at www.tatintl.com
