RickJames Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Hey guys, I know a few of you recommened a compressor at sears for $99. Which one is it? Ive seen one with 2 tanks for 99. Is that the one? If so, would you happen to know offhand what size fittings i would have to purchase to fit a airbrush gun? I will be ordering iwata cr rev. I would like to order the hoses and fittings at the same time. Also, whats a water trap? should I need to order one of those from dixiearts too? Thanks abunch, you guys guys have been a HUGE help.

Stay away from that Paasche blue compressor. It sucked!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palmetto Balsa Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 If that is the 4 gallon craftsman it will work fine. Mine looks almost the same (in red w/wheels). After I got my airbrush, I found the moisture trap at Home Depot. The fittings that I needed came in a package with the compressor. Don't purchase every color of paint yet. Buy about 5 colors (red, blue, yellow, black, and white) and get started with that, and then build your pallet from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
