HVLP for face - tanTALK

centerfold · 06-27-2006, 03:37 PM

Does anyone use their HVLP and Body Gun on customer's faces rather than switching to the smaller airbrush for this? Curious to know how that would work.

I don't switch. use HVLP head to toe.

Do you change up your technique at all or do you still do the same routine (start with face, sweep across in circular motion, etc.). I just purchased and started using mine. I've only done volunteer employees and relatives so far, and I used the HVLP the whole time. Then I read the Norvell manual and it says to switch to airbrush , but it didn't say why.

Do you get the same results if you use the HVLP the whole time?

Thanks.

I start with the upper chest and work down to the feet. Then spray neck and face last. I used to spray the neck and face first, but people want to look down to see what you are doing. (They can't help themselves) When they look down with their neck still wet it looks nasty where it creases.

I don't spray in circular motions. That is for the airbrush . HVLP is side to side sweeping motions. I turn down the output when spraying the face and get a little farther away.

Thanks. I was doing okay until I read the manual that I printed online. My equipment didn't come with any type of instruction, but I had it done at several places before I purchased mine so I just copied technique and it has worked out ok.

I use my HVLP for the entire body , just adjust the flow knob. Spraying up & down &side to side.
