The other big difference between airbrush-specific and general-use compressors is noise. Airbrush compressors are generally much quieter and therefore more suitable for use indoors. Finally, if you get a hardware store compressor, you'll need to find fittings to adapt to your airbrush because the hoses are generally larger than those on airbrush-specific compressors. That said, you may need adapters anyway (not all airbrush compressor hoses are compatible with all airbrushes) and they're typically easy & cheap to get on Amazon.

Hope that helps.

You want an actual airbrush (or other really small one ) compressor that you can adjust pressure on easily, and that has a moisture trap as mentioned above.

now, the good news - the harbor freight airbrush compressor is not bad. I used one for a few years before upgrading.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726638/9387190.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726638/9387190.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726638/9387714.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/726638/9387714.page GMT
