Can I use this pancake compressor with this spray gun:PORTER-CABLE PCFP02003 3.5-Gallon 135 PSI Pancake Compressor

Yes, as long as it gives you continuous 40 lbs. of pressure. I looked at the Porter-cable and decided on the 8 gallon Husky which was only $10 more. I am sure the porter-cable will do the job.

The manual says the operating pressure is 64 - 100 psi and I can confirm that it works well with my Porter Cable pancake compressor. Hope this helps.

I have used many different size compressors with this hopper and made it work properly. You can adjust material flow to match air flow.... the bigger the compressor the faster the material can be applied....smallest was a good pancake compressor and largest was my portable 6 HP on wheels with same results

I doubt it. You'll have to compare the cfm requirements of the gun to the compressor's output. I don't have the specs in front of me.

Yes. I use it with a small Bosch oiless pancake compressor. Terrific nailer. Vinyl siding adapter available

You need a compressor that provides 80 - 100 psi. I would recommend a Porter Cable pancake compressor or something similar.

I'm just using a Porter cable pancake compressor 2hp 6 gal, and it works great!

I have not used the Compressor to run any tool so far. The specs are athttp://www.portercable.com/products/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=23677It may not have the continuous delivery for a 3 psi tool.Have you talked to anyone at Porter Cable?

I run this gun on my porter cable pancake compressor and it works just fine. 150 psi is enough.

Simple answer in no, I don't think so. Look at the cfm that your compressor will deliver which is 2.75 cfm and a working pressure of 43-to-50 psi; air consumption of 5 cubic feet per minute for the paint gun. I'm using a 3.0 HP compressor with a 15 gallon tank and it works well.

You can buy a compressor at Sears, Lowes, Home Depot, Harbor Freight, etc. You just need to get a tank large enough to sustain a constant pressure. A small tank, like a 'pancake' wouldn't maintain the pressure and the sprayer wouldn't work right.

I don't think it will work with any type of a spray gun other than an artists airbrush. It has a very low air volume so it's great for a small nail gun but not for a heavy duty nail gun because it can't keep up with the air that's required. It's a great small compressor and is much quieter than the pancake models.

I use it with my pancake dewalt compressor, it's used to run my framing nailer also.

I should work fine. I have a small Porter-Cable 2 gallon "pancake" compressor and it powers the nailer without any problems.

Yes but there are a few questions. What are you spraying? A compressor needs to supply 43 to 58 psi at the gun. But air storage of the compressor is important if you are spraying a lot. Small tank storage of the compressor will empty quickly and you will loose pressure. My home compressor has about 4.8 gallons of storage. It is good enough to blow out air filters, fill tires, clean the garage out and supply pressure for short term needs. If I was painting a car, a compressor with a 60 gallon storage tank would a better choice as the compressor would not have to run all the time and the pressure would not vary. Also consider a properly placed water filter that will take the moisture out of the compressed air if that would be an issue for your project. All fittings and tubing are very common and available at your local Sears, Ace Hardware, Home Depot and of course Amazon.

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.

That's not to small, I mostly use a small pancake compressor with my flooring nailer and framing nailer, it keeps up just fine, it puts out under 3cfm at 90psi, I usually set the compressor at 100 psi for the flooring and framing nailer, and 90psi for my finish nailers.
