My new airgun

[REL]

I got it at Lowes for $40, it does a fantastic job. I had a siphon feed one before, what a piece of junk, and I paid $70 for it.

Here I used it on my Naboo Starship for the gloss black pre- coat for the chrome process. This will come in handy on my larger stuff like the D etc.

got a model number/name? I could use one of these.
Thanks!

I agree with the siphon feed being junk. I got a similar one at Harbor Freight for I think $17. I love the fact that your bench is as messy as mine! Whats that old saying...clean desk sick mind?

Yep, it's the Kobalt one. I painted a chair with it this morning, it's so cool. :lol

What kind of pressure do you need to power this thing? I've got a little compressor for my airbrush. Do you think that'll be sufficient?

About 15 to 20 psi is all I use.

Nice! How big an airtank do you need to be able to do a decent sized piece? Say a helmet? I have one of the smaller Sears compressors, and I always assumed that it'd be too small to run a paint gun.

I have a 50 gal tank, but I don't think you need a big tank, just let the compressor run and be sure to have moisture traps on the line.
