lol - that's why I said less risk, not no risk

- afaik a spray tan does not block the sun, like a 'real' one - so it might be hard to prove it was the spray 'wot done it'? - especially if the user has lain on the beach for 2 weeks, after application?

Getting heatrash & burning could mean she was under too long, or the tubes are 'dodgy'.

light tubes in sunbeds should be checked regularly, to ensure the wavelengths output are 'safe'
