Fantasy Tan system is 4K but they come and give you onsite training which is priceless in my eyes.

I started out being self taught and charged 10.00 for the first 20 sprays I did. Then I went up to 19.99 and now with the new System and my experience ....I will charge 30.00.

Thats Me! I posted pictures of the system. IT IS INDEED A HECK OF A DEAL!!! System is like new and laser works great for people just starting out. The laser tells you if you are too close or too far away from the skin.

You can contact me by phone 231 878-388 or pm me or email me anytime.

Whatever you decide, Good Luck!

I use 'DinAir' airbrush tan. I love it! The compressor itself is compact and easy to transport. The solution is amazing and my clients love it.
Dinair specializes in airbrush makeup for the stars and they have expanded to the airbrush tan. Which if you think about it, airbrush is a makeup for your whole body so if their make up is good, their tan must be too.
They also have paramedical solution that covers up tattoos, scars, psoriasis and more. I have clients that want to cover up tattoos for their wedding and its a good extra service. For example, charging for an airbrush ($40) and the add on of paramedical gets you an extra $15-$20.

Dinair's website is www.dinair.com

They have a few different kits. At our salon, we have both the mini and the beauty 2 compressors. The mini is more compact and better for traveling; however, I think the beauty 2 works a little better.

Dinair kits take a little bit longer to apply as you will need to cover each person a few times. The spray is light mist and most people will need 2-3 coats. This obviously takes longer, but also makes the chance of screwing up harder. Many customers who have had other types of airbrushing always comment on how they like our system better and seems way more professional.

HVLP, $80 bucks



Touch up, $30 bucks



26 gallon, belt drive, cast iron twin cylinder compressor. $379 bucks.



Hose, connectors, line dryer, about an extra $40 bucks.

$379
$ 80
$ 30
$ 40
--------
$529 dollars

You guys spending thousands of dollars for this crap are nuts. For a little over five Bennys you have the whole bulletproof setup. No hype, no exagerated costs. It's all the same $h!t.

If you have a spray booth then you already have a compressor and all you have to do is tee off of that. More savings right there. Just don't use both at the same time or there won't be enough volume for the booth during its cycle.

Brian- Have you ever set up a spray gun with a Magic Tan booth? I was thinking about getting a MT3500 and a Personal Touch gun but it is spendy and it's just a gun. Nice that the units exhaust turns on though.

Tee off the air line. Add another regulator so you can control gun pressure separately. Hook up a switch and relay to override the fan in the booth. Pour the juice in the gun. It's not that hard.

I know someone on this board using one of these for $99 bucks and getting good results. No joke. Has the remote kit run through the wall so the fluid is picked up from the jug in the other room.

You can use your compressor and purchase a gun from home centers or auto parts stores. It is the same crap used for painting cars.

As far as the person using the Wagner, I will let them chime in on their own if they want. I can send them a PM and include this link and if they want to shere they will.
