Re: air compressor for spraying car
3hp minimum, and a 50 litre tank at the very least.
My compressor is a 3 hp 150 litre sip airmate, and it keeps up with my gun nicely.
Make sure the gun nozzle isn't any bigger than 1.2mm, and make sure you get a decent moisture filter, and regulator that fits the bottom of the gun
