So i'm getting this airbrush - https://www.amazon.ca/NEO-Gravity-Feed-Action-Airbrush/dp/B004INERK4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1487902218&sr=8-1&keywords=neo+airbrush
(99% of the time im going to just be using the airbrush to basecoat)

Can anyone recommend me a compressor that will be "fine" for it? I'd really prefer to be budget on the compressor. From what I understand having a water trap + tank is really ideal.

Any recommendations? I'm in Canada but US products are fine also.

Thanks

Hi Orkmoticons,
base coating so you need probably a compressor with more than 30 psi , ideally with a tank (motor don't run constantly) and as you said with a moisture trap and air regulator. This is very important. You want something silent enough for your ears!
If you are on a budget maybe go for something like this: It is under 100$.
