MaxiMist Pro Spray Gun

Hi!

I recently began using the MaxiMist Pro spray gun with my Sjolie solution . Initially, I started at a 1.5 turn of the sprayer nob, following the directions the unit came with...

But I have read on multiple occasions by tanning professionals on the blog, that .25 to .5 turn of the nob is enough. And, I could tell that at a 1.5 turn the clients were coming out pretty sticky. So yesterday, I tried out the spray gun with a .5 turn of the nob. The Sjolie solution was very very light, the client received minimal color, and I found it hard to finish the 2 ounces usual per application.

I am not sure what I am doing incorrectly, and I am thinking about giving the nob a full 1 turn instead of the .5 turn. Everyone seems to be using the gun at a .5 turn at most with a great outcome, what am I doing wrong?


I appreciate your advice!
Thank you!

Julie

Hi Julie
Did you ever figure out the best setting ? I can't seem to get it perfect either

Re: MaxiMist Pro Spray Gun

I use my Maximist Pro gun with Sjolie solution .

I couldn't imagine turning it 1.5 times! For me, a little less than 1/2 a tun is perfect. I do 2 light coats. I just made a mark on the knob with nail polish to make it easier.

At this setting I use around 2 oz. Sometimes a little less.
