Question Storage of DHA solution

I have been reading many posts on the sunless solution separating and turning green due to it not being properly stored. I read in a post that it should be at 75 degrees at all times and if its too hot it will start to separate and become no good. I think it was aloha who said get a frigerator for the solution to store in?? How do you all keep your sunless solution from going bad?

Re: Storage of DHA solution

Smart Tan suggest to keep in a cool place out of direct sunlight. Temperature and air are the 2 things that make DHA break down. THey also suggest stirring with a non metallic spoon but say stainless steel is fine.

Re: Storage of DHA solution

I use to keep my juice in the refrig. also for a longer shelve life, but I was told if you temp doesn't fluctuate or it is around consistent temp 75 degrees its ok to live out.
The big issues I'm told to Hot or Freezing is a issue and it causes break down. I keep some in refrig and some in my spray tan room.

The green I'm told is a couple of things.
1. food coloring base.
2. Opening and closing lid and not proper closure which allows o2 to oxidize. No harm to solution just not a good look while spraying?
3. Old solution
4. Bacteria in solution
* NOw with this info who is right? I'm told something different by all sunless reps.
IMO I think it sound more like oxidization?
To prevent what I do (Not sure if this is a good thing, but I donot have prob. with green) I shake my juice each night or prior to usage. My booth well thats a different story. Also I do not buy gal. anymore I buy 1/2 gal to rotate my stock more often.
Not the best in cost efficiency, but I donot have green issues.

Re: Storage of DHA solution

yep I always keep my juice in the frig which is in my spray room . I have ( had ) white base boards which are a light shade of green now. Ever sprayed someone who had deoterant on ?? the arm pitts will turn green too. It's the air & heat.
