- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.พ. 2025
- We will be going over HOW TO SET UP AND TEAR DOWN YOUR TATTOO STATION. We will go
over what you need to set up before the client arrives. Then what you need to do when the client gets there. Finally what to do and how to tear down when the tattoo is over and the client has left.
Its important to do all you can to prevent cross contamination and to keep your shop or work
area clean before, during and after the tattoo. Also lets help each other out, so if you see something that I am doing wrong please let me know or if you do something different please feel free to let me know so we can all learn from each other. 🤘👍🤘

this literally clarified this whole process! Being an absolute beginner, I tried to rely on my memories of what tatt artists used to do when I got my ink and it was all so fuzzy and confusing. But this - this is some pro tattoo artist course material right here!
Thank you! 🙏
Yeah I remember not really knowing if I was doing things right or not. SO I figured we would just go over that real quick so everyone has something to go off of when starting out. And the cleaner and safer we all are the better for everyone. And thank you Robert much love!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I am just getting started into practicing and was so nervous on what to get and how to set up and all your videos been so helpful 💯
I am happy to know the video is helping you out KAY/NATE and I hope you feel a little bit better and or confident in what you need to get. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!! and KEEP ROCKING 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Wonderful best teacher bro
Same! Like they’re straight to the mf point.. out of curiosity and learner myself how’s it going? Does it seem easier?
I'm a dental assistant, and just found a passion for tattooing... So your video really helped me. I'm very glad that set up and tear down are very similar to what I already do. Gotta avoid all that cross contamination! 🤘
Yep you got it right we have to avoid cross-contamination. And being a dental assistant should make this process a little more comfortable for you. As most the products we use are also used in dental. And congrats on your passion for tattooing because it’s the best passion I have 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Omg i am studying to be a DA ( still in hs but it offers a program ) is not really the pathway i want to take. Ive been interested in handpoking and starting to practice on fake skin ! Good luck on your journey 🙌🏼
This is hilarious because I’m a beginner artist, and I went to the dentist for the first time in forever, the other day.
I walked in there like, oh, barrier film ! Dental bibs ! Oh u guys use autoclaves as well right 😂
I appreciate what you are doing so much! I keep these vids on standby. I know many other artist on here feel the same way man. Big appreciation for helping us all 🙏🏽
I have been using seran wrap to wrap my squeeze bottles , a long sheet long enough tk warp the bottle a couple times and snug it tight around the cap 💯 i find it easy and fun
In less than 12 hours I go into a tattoo shop in Reading PA to show a tattoo shop owner what I got, he wants to see what I know from prep to clean up, even what kind of tattooing techniques I know. My client I have coming with tomorrow is super excited, quite frankly, so am I. This video was a great refresher on how to stay clean, and it’s always good to come back to! Wish me luck!
You’re a savior omgggggg !! I started apprenticeship 4 days ago and I messed up today tearing down my artists station lol and I did not want to do it again !!! I love ur videos and u just happened to post this today lol just know u saved someone from making future mistakes today lol❤️❤️❤️ keep doing u
First off I’d like to say congratulations on your apprenticeship!!!!🤘🤘🤘👊👊🤘🤘🤘 again that’s really cool for days inn keep rocking it! And I’m really happy to hear the video was able to help you at the right time👍 It’s reasons like this that I will continue to keep making videos for as long as I can. I wish you nothing but the best Jordan as you continue down this journey!!🤘Rock On!
I have a tip! You can use a medium sized brand new plastic trash bag to cover your tray instead of saran wrap. It makes it so easy to clean because I just starting rolling the bag from the open end and capture all the stuff on my tray after I'm done!
G’day mate! 😃🤙
Mate HUGE THANKS TO YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS! Seriously they are a fricken life saver. I had to give up on my dream to tattoo when I shipped off to FT Benning 10 years ago and I just had a huge drive to do something that I love and makes me happy, and when I picked up a tattoo machine I honestly felt the happiest that I’ve been in a long time due to my major depression. But hit a huge wall when I started begging all the local shops for an apprenticeship. I either got “you’re to old to learn tattooing, no one will let you practice on them like they would if they were in high school”. And yes the obvious racial differences when they see that I’m part African American. You’re videos literally gave me a lot of hope. Thank you bro, keep making videos mate because I have my bell on!
God bless ya 🙏🤙
WOW thats awesome to hear the vids have been a life saver !! 👍🤘🤘👍 I understand the depression man I struggle with it every day. But I made tattooing my outlet, I put everything into it and never let anyone tell me NO or I cant or get a real job. You have to do this for you brother! For your well being. If you want something bad enough then you WIll make it happen, so it makes me very happy to know that these vids are helping you out cause you are the person I made these vids for. THe one who has a dream, loves art and wants to try to make a living do what they love. I wish you nothing but the best my friend and Keep Rocking you got this man!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Any experience with barracks tattoos? Asking for a friend... 😅
Good alternative for dental bits is aluminum foil
. I start setting up my station every time with it.
Also a little tip for coil lovers like me, there are machine bags that are quite usefull if you want keep your machines clean during the progress and dont clean that much later.
Also you need to bag your clipcord aswell, and dont make mistake of taping the clipcord sleeve to the end of the cord itself, pierce the ends though it, only like this its really serving its purpose.
Also like always great video man.
Great idea Losado!! Aluminum foil I’m sure it works great as well didn’t even think of that. 👍 and thanks for adding some tips in there for those who are using a coil machine with clip cord. Appreciate your support brother and your tips keep rockin!!!🤘🤘🙏🤘🤘
Great video. Alternative to vaseline underneath the rinse cup I've seen: Use two cups, cut one in half (horizontal), turn it upside down then put the other cup in it. It gives a better base and less likely to be knocked over.
I just recently uploaded a similar video ... I love the fact that in the years of ur experience ur still open to new or better tips . Every time I tattoo I might change something to make things easier and or safer for me and the other person.
That’s awesome!! And yes I think it’s important to always stay open to new ideas in regards to tattooing. I’m not perfect sometimes we don’t know if we’re doing things right or not lol. By the way you made a great video do you have a great channel and I wish you nothing but success!! Keep rocking!!🤘🤘🤘
THANK YOU!! I'm thankful to have come across your video. It's not easy to a)find a video with a "start to finish/step by step" process (which is simple but missed by so many ppl who have videos on "how to prep". Many "prep" videos only offer a verbal step by step (skipping nuances as well as safety and important tidbits). This is the only video I have now that can actually help me in my process of becoming a tattoo artist. Looking forward to this type of teaching. Thank you again
I’m apprenticing right now and haven’t been shown how to set up yet, just trying to be ahead of the game. Thank you!
I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you very much.
That’s awesome to hear Jay rock glad the videos and the channel are helping you out!! No don’t quit and keep rocking🤘🤘🤘
You have shown me more about art with your channel in your videos than I could have learned in years of apprenticeship.
Damn thank you so much Braden that means a lot!!👍🙏👍 and it makes me really happy to know that you’ve been able to learn so much from these videos!! So keep learning and keep rockin🤘🤘👊🤘🤘
I am becoming tattoo artist, and I can't thank you enough! You gave me so much knowledge, so thank you!👊🏻👍🏻
I'm a above average artist and almost 40 yrs old. I don't have any tattoos.The artwork and different styles of today's tattoos gives me an urge to want to learn.
That’s awesome to hear!! I hope you take the leap and start your journey down this tattooing road!! 🤘🤘🤘
Tattoo Tip-They make a metal tray that hold your cup it tilts a little so your about to get more ink out of your cups and they have places to slide in to and sit it’s pretty cool and helped me out a lot
Hey man, love all your videos and you’ve taught me a lot. I’ve been tattooing on myself for about a month and getting better each time. My dilemma is that my right side is partially paralyzed due a brain tumor that led to many surgeries. So I’m still trying to find the best way I can stretch the skin. If this was 2 months ago I would of never thought I’d be tattooing. I have many myself but because of my circumstances i didn’t think that I could of been doing this Now that I am I’m not going to stop till I perfect my craft. Thanks again
Wow Jesse you my friend are an inspiration!!! Amazing to hear that you are breaking the boundaries of what you thought was possible and are pretty much tattooing one handed. As far as stretching the skin goes you may need a helper to assist stretching the skin while you do your work. I think its awesome that you wont quit and are determined to perfect the craft!!🤘🤘🤜👊🤛🤘🤘 Keep on ROCKING Jesse and send some pics of your work as you go IG @daveinks.88
Art-Something thank you man. There are no excuses in this world. Where there’s a will there’s a way. Right now I’m using what little movement I have in my shoulder to push my hand into the skin to stretch it out. I’ve thought about getting help when stretching but that help isn’t always going to be there and in those situations I’m going to need a plan when it’s only me and a client.
@@jesselmolina33 i know im super late but there are some tapes for skin stretching
@@JuacoMmM wait really!!! Where can I find these?
@@jesselmolina33 Medical tape, the one they use when they cover a freshly made wound, it ia transparent
Really appreciate the new upload, been learning so much form you! I do have a couple simple questions and i apologize if its been answered already but
1. I know to use distilled water for my greensoap mixture, but what is the plain bottle of distilled water used for?
2. Is there a specific reason you use Cavicide instead of isopropyl alcohol to clean your station? My guess is its maybe to harsh of a product to use over and over on your supplies?
Thanks again man, not to sound corny but you have changed my life, with so much toxicity within the tattoo community you are a shining light
Awesomesauce! Thank you man! I’ve so waited for you to do this video. ☺️👍🙏
Thats awesome to hear Andreas!! So glad this was the video you needed!! Keep Rocking Brother and thank you for your continued support!! 🤘🤘🙏🤘🤘
Art-Something Well, in short, THANK YOU, man! Your channel is very appreciated! 🙏
Thank you for the awesome video ..im in the process of learning how to do tattoos i found that doing this helps my depression and keeping me positive. I've been watching all your videos and you really helped me out alot how to prepare myself, thank you 🤘
No problem im happy to help! And thats really great to hear that tattooing is helping you out in so many ways. I wish you the best of luck as you continue down the journey. Stay positive and Keep Rocking!! 🤘
Thank you for making these videos, im 14 years old and I dream of tattoing. My dad is a tatto artist, but he dosent know i wanna tatto. I love youre videos, and youre helping me whit how to put ny shades, lines and set my things up proberly. Thank you😃😄
Another great video bro. I never heard of Cava side,I use Lysol. And I put a bag over my green soap and water mix and tape the excess of the bag around the bottle but not touching the bottle. Im a left hand artist,so I do my tattoo left. My supplies are always to the right of me. It's more convenient to have it there to avoid spilling stuff. But great video the subscribers are rolling in. I remember when it was just 400,now it's 36k
Oh man bro I know what you mean it use to be a few of us here.... then IDK what happened I guess word got round lol but its honestly great to see so many of us come together and learn from each other. I have learned something new with every video I put out as so many people give me tips all the time. I guess what im saying is thank you King for being a solid supporter from the beginning!!! And yeah left handed would change things up just a bit lol. I use cavicide as it kills everything pretty much within three min. This is incase any bodily fluids made it past the barrier, it ensures everything is dead if you will. Keep Rocking King!!! Respect 🤘🤘🤜👊🤛🤘🤘
Thank you for all your info you are awesome man! You have helped me on my tattoo journey so much! It’s something I’ve wanted to do since I got my first tattoo at 18.
Thats awesome to hear Tyler!! Really glad the videos are helping you turn your dream into reality!! 🤘🤘 I wish you
nothing but the best as you continue down this Journey and as always Keep Rocking brother!! 🤘🤘🤘
Aw man where to begin.. I've been watching your videos & taking hella notes like if i were in class. I'm very very thankful youtube has you on here. I appreciate each and every video you have for new beginners. I'm super excited to order my things to get started. :)
Thank you so much for what you do.
Thanks for your videos big dawg. I've been teaching myself the last year and have grown leaps and bounda since watching your shit. Keep up the good work dude, much luv 👍
My friend and I just got a tattoo kit, going to be tattooing myself and my friends, thank you for the video!
This is the video that everyone thats involved in tattooing should watch. I set up and tear down exactly the same way. The only thing I do different is I don't set my ink caps out until I'm ready to pour ink into them, cause there's always the chance of something in the air landing in the caps that we can't see, or something that will cause some sort of contamination. But that's just me!! I also noticed u don't use ink cap holders. Is there a particular reason why u don't use them? I find them pretty useful, but again that's just me!! Though again, another great video, lots of good content your sharing with us all.👍👍
Wow thanks Keith I really appreciate the kind words brother!! 👍🙏👍 And thanks for the tip about the ink caps.
I think thats a great point and I will certainly be taking that tip!! 🤘 As far as cap holders ive just never used them before, sometimes I just get stuck in my ways lol. Are the cap holders you speak of disposable? Thanks again Keith I really do appreciate the support!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
@@ArtSomething Thanks for the reply back brother!! No the ink cap holder I have is stainless steel. I spray it with Alcohol before and after each tattoo then I put it in a plastic bag to keep it clean and safe. 👍
Great video. So I broke down and bought a CNC Q2 pen just to see what all the hype is about. Wow it works just as good as my Cheyenne. Will be using it a lot more. Glad I purchased it.. keep on kicking ass man.
Same here man!! I thought ok ill find a machine that seems solid and affordable and see how it compares to my
Cheyenne. And I have to say I havent used the cheyenne since getting the Q2. And thanks Michael glad your enjoying the content and I really do appreciate the support my friend!! 🤘🤘🙏🤘🤘

Leaving a comment so I can get a like and revisit this video for reference. Very informative, thanks a lot. Studio practice ignorance has been one of the elements that has retarded my progress thus far.
Great idea to keep bookmark the video. And Im happy to hear this video can help you out. I also appreciate the support!!🤘🙏🤘
I love your channel it has help me on my tattoo journey. 😊 thanks
good video mate! the film you use in the start to wrap work place, i would use the other side, because on the out side of the wrap there could be bacteria, so the inside of it is clean if you get what i mean, my english are not the best :P thanks!
Thank you Simon seriously thank you for that tip I really appreciate that!! Some how I would have never thought
of that so again what a great point!!👍👍 I will certainly be making that change moving forward!!!! 🤘🤘🤜👊🤛🤘🤘
hey art love the content i am trying to learn as much as possible about tattooing i am 16 and i want to know more about the different sizes of needles and the difference in the shading and lining needles thanks brother cant wait for the next vid
Thanks man!!! Great to hear your learning from the vids!! 👍👍 Here are a couple of vids you may or may not have seen and they talk about needles and how to use them and what not. th-cam.com/video/bAYFl369Bgg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/utAAI8Hz3q8/w-d-xo.html Thanks again Brother appreciate the support!! 🤘🤘🙏🤘🤘
Hi!! I’m just starting on tattooing, your videos help me so much. Thanks tons!!! Looking fwd for more videos!
So glad to hear they are helping you out Cristine and thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you for all of these videos! I’m learning so much. Can you show how you set up/wrap your client chair/table? Or did I miss that video? Thanks again!😁
Thank you teacher for your time ,be safe God bless
No problem glad I could help Hoto!! 🤘🤘 God bless you and yours as well my friend!!
I never use a spray bottle do to the fact that it sprays and spreads any bacteria from the machine else where/ everywhere, I spray a paper towel tills it’s soaked then I wipe my machine down then throw the gloves out replacing them with new gloves to then spray another paper towel till it’s soaked again with my germicidal solution and wrap it tightly with the soaked paper towel and let that sit for 5 minutes then after it sits for the duration I then wipe my machine clean ! Great videos tho bro keep up the good work!!🤙🏼😎
Great video, just getting started and this was the best video I’ve seen so far on pre prep and after. Thank you
This is a very useful video, and it's going to help my whith my *2022 goal of being more clean and organized*.So maybe one day I can tattoo people! Lol
Great vid Dave, as always brother. Keep up the outstanding work.
Thank you Richard I always appreciate your support brother🤘🤘🤘🤘
your videos are so helpful! thank you!
Your very welcome and Glad you like them! 🤘🤘
I practice mostly on my self only tattooed 2 people before pandemic I'm amature of bout 2to2 1/2yrs experience but I love art and drawing on skin is my new thing it's way different n its calming to me ... mostly practice on my left arm right now lol
Thank you for your vids and sharing your knowledge! I’m apprenticing at a shop and a lot of these steps are skipped. Makes me wonder if I’m learning in the wrong shop
Many of these steps were skipped at the shop I worked at as well. I pretty much learned on my own that this is the set up I prefer. It’s changed a bit and then modified over time but remains pretty much the same.
@@ArtSomething this set up just looks more cleaner to what I’ve seen from the shop. Ill most definitely be following the same tips here. Thanks bro
With the coronavirus pandemic going on and tattoo parlors getting shut down, I decided to start doing my own tattoos. Ive always been an artist and now I finally have time to pursue my passion. Thank you for these videos you truly are my mentor. Im 37 and I plan on making a career out of tattooing because of your step by step instructions. What's a good reasonbly priced pen kit to start out with? I've been looking at different ones but can't decide.
The machine I would recommend that’s affordable and quite nice would be the CNC Q2. I bought this to see if it was any good and see if I can recommend it to people. Since using it I haven’t really use my Chyanne at all. It’s good all-around machine I have a video on it I think it’s called CNCQ too short pen review. Thanks for watching Josh I wish you nothing but the best my friend and keep rockin!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
@@ArtSomething I ordered the Bronc V7, do you recommend this to be good for a beginner? Or do you prefer CNC Q2
@@sammispatz6999 Sorry Sammi as I have never used the Bronc V7. So for that reason I cant compare the two my friend.
Thank you so much for the education I’m getting through your videos! 🖤👏🏻
You are very welcome and I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos👍 thank you for watching and supporting the channel🤘🤘🤘🤘
super helpful video, answered my questions. thank you sir
your very welcome Jesse!!🤘
Hey! First of all thank you for existing for all of us aspiring tattoo artists ! I live in Canada and of course like anywhere we are sold out of cavicide spray AND wipes....is there anything else I can use until those become available again 😭😭😭😭
No problem Skyra im happy to help!! I feel your pain when it comes to getting supplies and what not. Its a difficult time to get a lot of the normal supplies we use daily. I will look into other options as I have really always used Cavi wipes or spray.
Great video👌!!!!!! Cool to see how you do things and how i can improve my own gameplan. Your videos are always helpfull. Thanks alot !!!!👌
Thanks Granville 👍👍 glad the video is helping you and the game plan out!! Always good to be prepared. And thanks for watching its much appreciated!! 🤘🤘🤘
Keep Em Coming, Man.
Will do Nykera!! And thank you soo much for watching and supporting!!!! 🤘🤜👊🤛🤘
Thank you so much Brother. Really helpful. Love from India.😊🤘
No problem Charan!! Happy to help brother!! and much love back to you and India!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you so much for all your videos! Been learning a lot this past months from you, best teacher ever lol
I was wondering what is the best outlining ink you have used for lettering or traditional tattoo designs
Thanks David really appreciate that man!! 👍👍 I use Dynamic ink for both lining and to make my gray wash. I also use big sleeps black and their gray wash but thats for really dark work. Hope this helps brother!! 🤘🤘
@@ArtSomething thanks brother, helps out alot to know 👌✌️ means alot and stay safe!
since I have a nursing background and am trained in hygiene, I would advise you to use surface disinfectant wipes instead of spray disinfection. On the one hand, they are safer to handle, more hygienic and have the right effective concentration. 1 cloth to disinfect the tattoo machine, 1x to disinfect the accessories such as bottles and co, 1 cloth to disinfect the workplace and 2-3 cloths to disinfect everything else such as couches etc. that could have come into contact with the customer or is. Don't forget to change gloves. I use Meliseprol from Braun, for example, I don't need 2 different disinfectants, I have one for everything that is gentle on the material.
A lot has happened in hygiene on the subject of distilled water, at least here in Germany. We were instructed to stop using distilled water, neither in care nor in tattoo studios. The background why is that water tips over after 24 hours and germs and bacteria start to build up in it to be cost effective we were advised to use small bottles of still water from the supermarket which is just as good as distilled and cheaper.
I really can’t tell you anything new so, thank you very much for your videos👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
for your green soap and water bottles I feel like it’d be easier for the takedown if you put the top bag on first then the bottom so when you put it on the clean dental bib on your desk you don’t have to drop it out - just a thought , LOVE YOUR VIDEOS BTW ! just ordered my first machine I can’t wait to get practicing (:
Hey thats a pretty good idea!! But the reason why I do top last is so if liquid drips down it can not drip into the bottom bag but rather it drips on to the dental bib. It sounds pointless but I try to do my best. Congrats on ordering your first
machine!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 I wish you nothing but the best as you start your tattoo journey!! 🤘🤘🤜👊🤛🤘🤘
Art-Something Ah makes sense! You really think of everything, glad to have a guide like you. Thank you so much !! 🥺
This is good but I have two suggestions.
1. Place a stack of wipe towels on the work station. Remember if you don’t use them all, throw the unused ones away, they must be considered contaminated.
2. If at any time during the tattoo session you remove and reinsert a needle cartridge into your machine you potentially contaminated the push rod. It is important to dismantle your machine to access and clean the internal push rod and push rod housing.
Thanks the videos!
Thanks bro great information like always. Stay blessed.
No problem Blessed always happy to help. And thank you so much keep rocking brother!! 🤘🤘
Thank you for sharing ❤
I wonder how clean your home is if its anything like how clean your tattooing station is VERY CLEAN!!! You have some great tips THANK YOU...
This Helped a lot thank you. Also, Thank you for your service Brother
Thank you so much Jose I’m really happy the videos are helping a man. Thank you brother I appreciate Support!!! 🤘🤘🙏🙏🤘🤘
Yo Dave, I just watched this video on set up and tear down. That’s exactly how I taught myself to do things, almost to the T. I use Medicide (which is pretty much the same thing). Cleanliness is MOST IMPORTANT tome when tattooing. I get that from Eternals website.
To me... not tome.... lmao
Thats awesome to thear Lloyd!!! Glad to see others doing it the same way!! It also helps me know that im doing things correctly as well lol. Thanks again for the support man, Keep rocking!! 🤘🤘
Thanks my bro for another very nice video .🤘🤘🤘
No problem Vasileios 👍👍 And always I appreciate your continued support brother!! 🤘🤘🙏🤘🤘
Thank you for making these videos!! So much helpful information and guidance. Really awesome.
Guys dont spray your machines with the cleaner! Not all machines will take the moisture, the wipes would be your best choice! 👌🏼
nice, informational video by the way, love to see it
Couldn't agree more with you Savage the wipes are definitely the way to go!! And thank you so much for watching and supporting what we are trying to do here!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Watching this helped so much as i was looking for the best way to be clean. but those wipes are not in stock anywheres online do you know of an alternative?
Thanks Nicole glad the video was of help to you!! 👍👍 Yeah the wipes are well wiped out lol. I use the spray
for now like I did in the video. It will work just fine but when the wipes become available I would try to get those
as they are much nicer to use.
Great video dude, really informative, keep up the good work!!!!
Thanks man appreciate that and im glad you enjoyed the vid!! 🤘🤘
My workspace is a little bit smaller, so I youse a glass top with some foil. for the rest its the same, nice video friend
Oh yeah foil would work great as well!! 👍 Thanks for sharing that Jochen!! ANd thank you again for the support!!
🤘👍🙏👍🤘
Do you also sterilize your machine at all? Or does the cavacide typically disinfect on its own? Asking for those of us without an autoclave?
realy helpful ! thanks a lot !!
Excellent videos. I've been binge watching them. When it comes to spray bottles, I use a new one for each client. The method you are using has too much potential to be contaminated. I used to cover my bottles the same way, but realized this potential hazard, and figured it would be best to just dispose of them after each client. btw... have you made the vid for the RCA conversion for the cheyenne pen? Thanks again, you rock!
That seems like it would get pretty expensive using a new bottle for every client. But I guess you can’t put a price on cleanliness. And no I still have not made the RCA conversion for the Chyanne pen. Sooner or later I’ll make that video👍👍 thanks for watching Z Awad appreciate the support🤘
Is the cavicide an alternative to an autoclave?
Just a couple fun facts I have picked up latex gloves don’t protect you from blood born diseases it’s something like 5 minutes and it’s through nitrial gloves on the other hand does protect you from such things also I were glasses because you can get blood born diseases from aerosolised blood landing into your eyes most people who tattoo wear glasses but it’s a good thing to know love the video 😊
do you use an autoclave? I haven't been able to find out if it's absolutely necessary to use one or if thoroughly wrapping and cleaning everything is good enough.
It depends, cartridge machines can often be cleaned very well with cavicide or a similar cleaner because it is less likely for bodily fluids to pool inside the machine. If you are using metal tubes and grips with standard needles they should probably be autoclaves because it is very difficult to ensure all the fluids have been cleaned inside. IMO it is better to autoclave whenever you can but sometimes that just isn’t an option.
amazing video man like always.
Thank you soooo much Nicole!! 🤘👍🤜🤛👍🤘
Thank you so much for this video! Which basic disinfectant do you use for the squirt bottles?
You can. Hold the bottles by the top of the bottle holding the top bag, Pull off the bottom bag , Pull the top bag up a tad exposing the bottom of the bottle allowing you to place the bottom of the bottle on the other dental mat. Then pulling of the top bag easily. No need to place the bottle on the side.
Great content as always, thanks for sharing
Thanks Royston!! 👍👍 And no problem brother thanks for watching!! 🤘🤘
Mann cool work station mines all ghetto at times but I'm sterile as I can be and I like all your inks I've only got few but I'm saving to make my station as cool as yours
Hahaha "client showed up, late as usual " hahaha
Lol !! 😂😂
Thanks! New Subscriber Here! Cant wait to watch more of your videos!
That's awesome to hear Jennifer. I appreciate your support of the channel!! 👍👍
dude thank you so much great info:)
Do you not autoclave the grip?
can you do a video or include in a video, all about saniderm aftercare with a tattoo? for example, how long to leave saniderm on, what to expect after a day or two, etc?
Yeah Maddie that sounds like a fantastic idea. I’ll be looking into putting something together here in the upcoming few weeks. 👍👍👍
What is the difference between the dc and rca power supply? And which one is best for a tattoo pen?
Btw: you’ve been helping me a lot! So thankful for you 💕
This really helped man
Good morning, once again thank you so much for time & knowledge. I always look forward to your videos, my question is what do you recommend for an alternative for CaviCide? I currently use Great Value All Purpose Cleaner, Lemon Scent am I at wrong?
I do it all very similar except my rinse cup and ink cups go into a separate small medical tray lined with cling film (saran wrap) just so any spills only go into that small tray and not anywhere near my machines
Thats a smart idea Luke I may have to steal that tip from you. As I seem to spill my rinse cups more often then i'd
like to admit lol. Thanks again man always appreciate it!! 🤘🤘🤜👊🤛🤘🤘
Im about to start practicing in fake skin and i really enjoy your videos. I seen a video where you say distilled water to rinse the needle when using different colors. Ahhh so my question is do you just dip it and thats it???
Great video!
