air compressor
Posted by TGregory on Wednesday, November 8, 2006 8:20 PM

I have a ShopForce 2-gal air compressor from Meijer that I paid $50 for. I also have a generic airbrush (dual action) my daughter bought for me. It has a small cup for a bottom feed and it came with two small siphon bottles. I have about 35feet of hose on the ac unit. Does this affect the pressure to the ab? I must keep the pressure above 25psi to get any decent spray out of it.

on the bench 1/24 f109

i wouldn't see where it would affect the pressure at the other end as the compressor keeps the tank at a certain PSI and once it's full(line included) it replaces it as it's used

thanks for the reply

could the generic nature of the ab have anything to do with the increased pressure I must use?

I spray between 22psi and 35psi it seems I have no choice.
