Rep Power: 0 | Trow away your leftovers?or back in bottle? Hello, my distributer told me that i should always throw away the leftovers from my tanning solution after i sprayed. this because its not good for the quality of the product. Is this really necessary? or do they just want to sell me more bottles? |

Granted I usually only open the bottle to refill my cup but in the last 6 years I have never just emptied it down the drain and have not had any problems. Probably depends too on how fast you go through your solution . Sometimes what I will do is collect it in a seperate container and just use it to spray myself and my husband. |

If the question is do you throw away a gallon of solution after one spray then the answer would have to be don't buy solution by the gallon. It should take a couple ounces give or take to spray a person. Don't be cracking a keg to spray one person. Just remember that once that solution is exposed to air it starts to go bad. If you can find a way to dispense the solution without exposing the supplies to the elements it'll never go bad. |

If you spray 4 people day just clean the cup at the end. you should be able to judge how much you will need to spray a client. as Engfant said as soon as the stuff hits the air it begins to oxidize. oxidized solution turns green (I don't know why) if you dump it into the jug then the whole lot is contaminated

Next day thats the solution i start with and add to it as needed. Never have a problem unless i forgot to chill it over the weekend. I do 6-10 a day so i go through solution fairly quickly, never a problem. |
