Airbrush Question

[BentnoseWillie]

I use a 1/8 HP medical compressor. Works great, although I really do need to spring for a moisture trap and pressure regulator someday...

If you have the space for a larger unit, you might watch Home Depot or Harbour Freight for deals on a 2 HP compressor/tank combination such as Campbell-Hausfeld's. Those are often on sale up here for $CAD 99.

Any source of clean dry air, nitrogen or carbon dioxide is fine. In addition to, and more important than, the compressor, are the filter, regulator, water trap and oil trap - often two or more of these are combined in one unit. The bigger the tank, the better.

Pick a compressor that is fairly quiet. Home Depot, Wal-mart, Sears, Harbor Freight, etc are all okay.

Some of the best painter use a cylinder of clean dry nitrogen or carbon dioxide from a gas or welding supply place. With those, you only need the regulator.

Hi guys

I received a Badger model 200 airbrush for Christmas and would like to know what kind of compressor that I would need for this.

thanks
