How is the compressor? A compressor is the main, maybe only, thing I would use; a Keeley is over $250.

To be honest, I never tried a Keeley so I couldn't possibly compare the two

Keeley is a boutique compressor (hence its price tag), so it would be hard to compare anything to it. The G1XN manual says: "This is a MXR Dynacomp type compressor", so you'd be better off testing a MXR first. The G1XN offers 9 preset levels to choose from. When combined with a mild drive setting (like the Fender '65 Twin Reverb) it boosts the signal with very pleasant results. With heavier drive options (Like the Peavey 5150) a very strong sustain can be achieved.

I would say at least a 20 gallon compressor or bigger. A pancake compressor is just not big enough to keep up. My 20 gallon I would have to stop now and then to allow it to catch up.

we used an air compressor. if you don't have one, just go to a gas station and use theirs.

A smaller compressor would work, but if you need tons power at least a 19cfm compressor. I would recommend the aircat gun, am not too happy with the CP7748.

I doubt it. Though for the price, it's worth a try. If it doesn't work, you'll have a great portable compressor for small nailing jobs, inflating tires, etc. BTW, how do you de-gas something with a compressor?

The compressor runs good but paint does splatter a little I bought a quick release with pressure adjuster for $2 , but could also be paint clogging , gonna try thinning paint or filtering it with like some kinda pantyhose material

Kenneth, the Viair is a fantastic compressor. It will do the job for you. Everything is top quality and the automatic shut off when you release the trigger is a great feature. The pressure gauge works very well. It costs quite a bit, but is worth it.

I use a 15 gallon 3 hp compressor. Approx $100-$150 at home depot I think. I'm not sure of this gun sets requirements, I ended up returning this set it didn't spray too well and made a honking sound. If u are looking for using a spray gun with a smaller.compressor...look into a low volume low pressure gun set.

I don't know but I'm happy with the Slime. I don't think I want to spend 150 bucks for an air compressor.

As a matter of it is. Air is great but you need a large compressor. That's why I bought the electric one.

It will be much faster than most compressors, short of running something with a large 30gallon tank that is already charged and ready to go. It is about the best you will get in something fairly portable.

Mine was decent. I wouldn't say well. It came with a lot of heavyweight paper crumpled up as packing material. The compressor worked fine out of the box.

Either will work but it will all depend on duration of use. Used compressors can be found on ebay for fairly cheap. Also a small tool compressor will work as well if you can regulate the level of psi. Air cans over time will add up in cost and could easily surpass the cost of a compressor. Air cans are great for work where no power is available and for light spraying. I use my Paasche for spraying firearm finishes and a compressor was the way to go for that. I use both a Paasche I bought used from ebay as well as a large shop tool compressor that has a air cleaner and psi regulator.

I have one of those cheap 89$ tiny compressors. I think it only has a 2 gallon tank and must be a fraction of a HP. It works fine with this tool.

This thing is overkill for that. But yes, if you have a huge place to mount it. I run my entire shop off of this thing. You might be more interested in something smaller rated at 2000-3000 to do what your wanting. I actually run a small pancake compressor off of a good 1000 and it does fine but I can only run one tool at a time off of that. If you get much larger you will definitely notice the load on your vehicle. I hope this helps!

Any compressor that is 100 to 120 psi. The bigger the compressor the less it runs and hold the psi to keep it going . I use a pancake compressor it works fine. I have used it on Hardwood flooring and works fine.

I think you would need more like 50+ PSI and a fairly large amount of air, like a huge compressor that can sustain constant running. But for the money this item is well worth it.
