Compressor question

[ProfessorM]

i would get something with at least a 12, 15 gallon tank. The little ones work good but they will cycle on a lot and thus be noisy. I can fill up my 15 gallon one, shut it off, and paint all day on maybe 2 fillings and mostly just the one fill up.. Sears has some very good ones and not that expensive, look for sales. I prefer the oil ones too as they last a lot longer and are a little bit quieter. Just my 2 cents.

You answered the question I forgot to ask and taht was about noise. I have no separate space to keep a noisy tank in, so going larger seems to make some sense. I've also read that I may need some sort of filter attachement to catch condensed water in line between tha tank and the air brush. Probably explains why I've gotten the occasional splatter of water mixed in with the paint.
