When setting up an airbrush tanning booth the first thing you need to check is the filter system. Most tanning booths purchased from companies specializing in spray tanning supplies already come equipped with a filtration system. If not, then you can purchase one individually and secure it yourself. The filtration system is essential because it will suck away the mist caused by the spray tan gun.

The second thing you need to take care of is protecting the walls and floors with either plastic or vinyl. Finally, be sure to keep supplies on hand, like clean towels for the customers to stand on. Gloves for the spray tan technicians are also must-haves.
