Title: Question about an air compressor for spray painting
Post by: bweaver on April 21, 2017, 12:00:14 PM
Further to the recent pilots meeting where Greg and Simon kindly provided valuable information about spray painting and equipment, it was suggested to keep an eye open for an inexpensive compressor.  So as suggested I have been keeping my eyes open for an inexpensive air compressor suitable for our hobby purposes. (See, I was paying attention)

Well, I have seen one advertised in the Canadian Tire Flyer - Friday April 21 to Thursday April 27,2017 (page 18). 

Please refer to the photo below of the advertisement and specifications.  I am interested in the Sale 69.99 Reg 169.99 2 Gallon Oil-Less Compressor, includes accessories.  Delivers 0.4 CFM @ 90PSI. (Model number 58-1289-2)

Any comments or experience with a compressor of this capacity and capability would be helpful.   ???

Thanks  Bruce
