  • Use your regular air compressor with your airbrush without having to buy the specialized compressors that are made just for airbrushes. Save money and protect your airbrush and projects with this setup.

    Also if you have a harbor frieght nearby you could possibly get on there. Also the couplings there would be cheaper too. Best of luck on your projects.

    I tuned into for the music and somehow learned about airbrush and compressor rigging.

    Thanks! Very useful vid. Nice work mat you have there too, funny thing is I searched up your video because I'll be using an airbrush to apply some Duracoat to a couple new lower receivers.

    Good overview. For airbrushing having regulators that go up to 100 always seems silly - why not have guages and regulators that stick to the 5-50psi range to allow easier reading of the lower ranges. Are there any recommendations on the regulator that ensure there is enough fine adjustment to control +-2psi levels down in the 10-20 PSI range?

    how about a 80 gallon industrial shop compressor?

    • @xtreambackman
      @xtreambackman  Před 3 lety

      yes , thats what i have . i do have a regulator on the compressor then into the small one there to reduce pressure further

    @robophobic3716 Před 3 lety +1

    Great Video. Do you know what pressure these should be set to?

    • @xtreambackman
      @xtreambackman  Před 3 lety

      The airbrush should tell you a good operating pressure . In the manual. I cant remeber exactly but I think mine is set to 20psi. Consult your book to be sure . It has bee about 6 months since I have done any airbrushing. Sorry

      @davidr6585 Před 2 lety +1

      Set your shop compressor pressure regulator to... say 40lbs. Then use the smaller pressure regulator you got for your air brush to fine tune the pressure to lower levels more accurately.

    Air is air, actually the noise levels are more importent, plenty of compressor reduction fittings around but no noice silencers!!!

    • @BigRalphSmith
      @BigRalphSmith Před 3 lety

      Best silencer?
      Distance.
      (maybe with a door or two between you and the compressor if possible)
      Get yourself a couple of cheap 50' air hoses. Problem solved.

      If you are using an airbrush compressor you shouldn't need all that. This setup is for a 80 gallon shop compressor
