magic tan spray booth problem..

mmodel20 · 09-18-2006, 12:40 PM

anyone else experience this??? you can hear air coming out from behind the booth... it seems as if it is coming from the filter area... and there are instructions in order to push up on the bottom of the filter to drain any water build up.. but there isnt any water coming out... and yet i still have this air leak noise coming from there. If anyone has a remedy or has had this problem before i would be grateful to hear it. Thanks again

I dont own a booth, but from trouble shooting my own airbrush system, if you hear or feel leaking air, you have a problem. Your machines probably don't have the correct pressure of air. Are your tans still coming out ok?

Check the fitting on your compressor hose

yeah the machine seems to be working fine... the fittings are okay... the air is definetely coming from the filter area... i assume maybe just the filter has a bad seal or something small and quirky like that.. thanks for the ideas... i welcome some more if anyone has one

Keep in mind that DHA is a sugar-based chemical and will erode anything rubber. If your gasket is made of a rubber-like material, it has probably been compromized and needs replacing.

The problem is most likely the air filter bowl leaking
by the purge valve. I would call the factory and order
a replacement.

Its pretty common for the filter to leak from the purge valve. Order up a new one!
