2. What is the best way to measure my acrylic for ordering purposes?
How To Measure.
IMPORTANT: Since the measurement you give identifies accurately your replacement shield, it is very important to give us as TRUE a measurement as possible. The only way to measure is by using a metal tape measure (cloth or vinyl measurement tools can stretch causing inaccurate measurements!).
3. When should I replace my tanning bed acrylics?
Acrylics should obviously be replaced when they are broken, especially if the crack is large enough to either pinch a customer, or break completely and further damage your tanning unit.
One of the biggest mistakes of salon owners is waiting for their acrylics to break before replacing them. Even if your acrylic appears to be in perfect shape, over a period of time it will begin to block a percentage of the UV light. Most acrylics should be replaced every 1500-3000 hours. The best way to test the UV transmission of your acrylics is to purchase a light meter. Take a reading with acrylic on. Then, take a second reading with the acrylic off. If the readings show a difference of 20% or more, the acrylics need replacing.
4. How do I place my tanning bed acrylic order?
Once you have all the information required (see What information do I need?) you may send your order via Email: peterh@wolfftanning.com or Call your order in to: 770-505-4006 please have your credit card information ready (we do not ship COD).
5. What will I be charged for shipping?
Acrylics are shipped within 2 days of your order being processed and shipping charges are for up to 3 acrylics on some models. We use Fed Ex for shipping in most cases!
6. What can I do to prolong the life of my acrylics?
To prevent premature cracking, make sure that your bed has all of the acrylic supports properly installed. Inspect them to make sure that they are not loose or cracked.
Some units do not have a proper support system to begin with. In that case, you can either purchase aftermarket acrylic supports that can be modified to fit your tanning unit. Or, you can purchase replacement acrylics in an upgraded thickness for an additional charge.
Use disinfectant and cleaners that are acrylic safe. Most home cleaning products are damaging to acrylics.
Clean and polish your acrylics regularly with a system such as Novus Plastic Polish. It comes in three steps: Step 1) cleans and prepares the acrylic surface for polishing, Step 2) removes haziness and fine scratches, and Step 3) removes deeper scratches. Using this system will prevent build up, remove scratches, and help prolong the life of your acrylics.
Make sure that all of your internal cooling fans are working. Defective fans can cause hot spots in your tanning unit. In a worse case scenario, this can cause unnecessary warping of your acrylics.
Do not allow any of your customers to use tanning products that are not designed for use in indoor tanning equipment.
Care / Maintenance: Many factors such as heat, weight and tanning bed lotions can add to the decrease in performance of your acrylics. Proper maintenance can deepen the tan of your customers.
