Not sure where my last question went (will probably show up after I post this one lol)...

Now that my airbrush question is answered(thanks Jessica for asking about airbrushes)

My question is what do you need for an air compressor?

Thanks

Well simply put, just about anything will work. You can get a 30 psi airbrush compressor, but the thing is going to run the whole time you paint and it is highly annoying. So you are best off getting a fairly powerful compressor and as big of a tank as you can afford. You HAVE to have a decent regulator and of course keep the moisture our of your line.

You can get tanks of air from you local theissens or welding shop also. Takes no power but again, needs a good regulator. I don't know what type of air to get, maybe someone else will post and tell us, but I know it is in the achives.

If you plan on painting alot, then get a good compressor with a large tank.
