In Reply to: Which air compressor to buy?? posted by David N. Lundstrom on Wednesday, November 08, 2006 at 1:56PM :
David,
Those compressors are toys. They're mostly used for nail guns & air tools that use very little air. Most auto tools & especially autobody tools use LOTS of air.
Get one with a minimum 15CFM of air & preferably over 20CFM. Go for a used 5HP two stage compressor over a new one & you'll be way way happier.
Look at your local auctions...they often go cheap but Anything at Sears, Lowe's, Home Depot etc....don't waste your money.
