ginger vend Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I know this question was asked a little while ago, and I don't remember it being answered (or I missed it). I am in dire need for some sunscreens as some profitable locations have no other room but in the sun. Where can I find these? Thanks for any info.

nuchols Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Do they not have plan black sun screens. I want to buy some but will be vending PMM and there sun screens are for other types of candy. Where do you buy the black sun screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpy Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Black would DEFINETLY defeat the purpose, it would be a solar collector. Better white, use cardboard and laminate it. Better still if you have old globes get out the hacksaw and cut your own sunscreens and pait them white. Grumpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuchols Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Thanks for the suggestions. I think I will do the white paper idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Coast Vend LLC Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Ginger, What type machines do you have? Just remember, if it's really, really hot in the location, even a sun screen will not save chocolate products. Best thing to do is find a cooler location.

ginger vend Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 Thanks for the info guys. The machines are A&A and it is PMMs I am concerned about. Will try the cardboard and go from there. Want to keep the locations if at all possible since they make a decent amt and they asked for the PMMs especially. Ginger Vend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuchols Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 The sunscreens you bought look like they would only work in sqaure globes. Do they work or fit in round globes as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 The sunscreens you bought look like they would only work in sqaure globes. Do they work or fit in round globes as well?Youre right. I guess if you used 2 sided tape it would work ok in a round globe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuchols Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 If you use double sided tape on sunscreens or home made candy labels can people see the double sided tape when looking at the machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmuseStar Vending Co Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 A&A Sells them Ginger. Is it a panel or globe? I think they go for about 50 cents each. Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Thanks Kyle, Of all the machines I have purchased from them and I didn't even realize they sold sunscreens:X It is a globe. My homemade ones of cardboard covered with white paper and laminated aren't the most professional looking, but they are out in locations now. Now I can change them out for some real sunscreens.

T BIRD Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I used a couple of sun screens today for a location that gets early morning sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
