Boy...there's quite a debate on this one if you search some of the spray tan forums out there! I bought a MaxiMist set up that came with Suntana solution. I used it a few times on my husband and wasn't impressed with the quick fading he had. The color was fine, it just didn't last. May have been my technique because I'm still a beginner. I've heard good things about Tampa Bay tan and Jamaica Me Tan but I haven't tried either yet. Mostly all of these companies sell sample sizes that will do 3-4 tans.

If you find something you like, please share!!

After the disaster I shall refer to as Moroccan tan, I recommend getting a spray nozzle that is METAL. 

I purchased the whole kit from Tampa Bay Tan and I LOVE IT!  With the package they will give you a sampler of their solutions.  Personally, my favorite is their Revive solution.  I have tried other solutions with the same gun and I think that Tampa Bay's solution fades the best, there is no breaking apart in the skin and the color is very natural.  I have had the equipment for over 2 years without any problem.  I have never used their aftercare products, and there's not a lot of hands on training with them.  I was lucky to have a friend of a friend that owns a tanning salon and trained me, but you can always sign up for the Norvell webinar trainings and they are super informative!  Hope this helps.

We are now offering tabletop tanning using Fake Bake products from Universal Companies. The result is really pretty, and as the client, I am MUCH more comfortable laying draped on my heated table having the tanning liquid buffed gently into my freshly hot-towelled skin than standing nude in a tent, shivering, with a loud machine running, getting sprayed with cold stuff. Just a thought and it is a $20 investment instead of a $2000 investment.

Hi.  Can you tell more about the Fake Bake system?  Is it lotion that is applied to the client?  I am looking for self tanning that I can offer to clients as well, but I am trying to be wise with my investment.  

It's really nice, it's the dark brown and purple bottle. It is liquid in a mister bottle and we have had best luck misting it onto the mitt and buffing it into the skin. The mitt goes through the wash and seems to last about 3 clients. The only reason I could see for spraying rather than using this method is if someone is unlicensed and can't touch clients bodies. Otherwise, it is equally fast, less wrist strain (soft effleurage vs holding a heavy spray gun), less to possibly inhale, and equal quality tan. And a much more pleasant service. There are plenty of lotions and things in the line too to enhance tans, but for the basic service really all you need is that bottle.
Just checked, the specific product is called Flawless. It has enough of a bronzer in it to see what you are doing.

This is brilliant Coldsalineplexus!  I had refused to do spray tanning since the previous mentioned disaster.  I may try this again!  THANKS!!!

Did you try it, Amy? I'm looking for a tanning system to add to my services, so I'm looking around previous posts lol

Bought it Saturday and Tried it today. WOW!!! I simply LOVE this!!! I used something called Airbrush by fake bake. Applied with gloves, massage style, and AMAZING RESULTS!!! AMAZING, and my client FELL ASLEEP!

How awesome is that?!!!

I spent 40$ on product (I got 3) and a couple of sets of dark sheets. That was it! AMAZING!!!

so wait... no "spraying" at all?

well the spray comes out of the bottle like hairspray and then I use the mitt to do a sort of quick rubbing motion onto the skin.  No equipment needed and it's relaxing. :D
