UVA Disinfectant Harmful to skin ! - tanTALK

Chippp · 05-08-2001, 10:35 AM

The label on UVA Disinfectant has a DANGER WARNING on the front of the bottle saying"DANGER CORROSIVE TO EYES AND SKIN? KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN"How do you remove the residue from tanning bed acrylics to protect clients skin from damage?Do you wash it off with clear water after its use?How can this CORROSIVE not effect the acrylic as well?Do you wear rubber gloves when you handle this chemical?

I've finally figured it out....The Chipster has been "sniffing" concentrated santizing fluid and it turned his brain (?) to swiss cheese.Don

Chipppppp, if you would read the large print, it states that you must dilute it, one ounce of disenfectant to one gallon of water. Once diluted it looses a bit of it's strength and becomes a mild mannered sanitizing solution . Hopfully now you'll be able to get some sleep.

So you leave the residue on the bed you do not clean it off with water?

Chipster:So, great one, please tell us how you clean the metal grids on your stand up units. If you spray them with a sanitizer, how do you clean the lamps behind the grids? If you do not spray them with a sanitizer, shame on you!And how do you clean the "spit" off of the lamps?I am eagerly awaiting your reply.Don

Hey Don I think I've been asking the "great one" for his cleaning and maintenance schedule for over a week now. He can't tell us because I'm not even sure he has a salon. I think your right he tans outside on his afternoon walks at the "hospital"

We never have spit on our lamps.What kind of clients do you have? yuck!We sponge the grids off with disinfectant then with clear water.There is no need for clients to lay on the steel grids in a booth and they stand in the middle of the booths and don't have any need to ever touch the grids. The grids are a good 12" or more away from the client.Clients don't sweat so we have no sweat to clean up. The clients don't have any need to come into contact with the steel grids ever.You seem to not know what a tanning booth is or how tanning booths are used?The lamps are cleaned weekly and never even have a chance to get dusty.The clients never come into contact with the lamps ever.Disposable paper mats are supplied for the booth floors.Or clients wear their own sandals, what ever they prefer.Clients at no time come into contact with any public surface.
