    mine was 1k+ and WESTAIR is a good place to start. They say made in WA but im pretty sure they assemble them here and parts made in china. If you have 3 phase then your heaps better of but i dont have that yet :(.

    If your going to be toying around with you car and doing stuff yourself then they come in real handy. rattle gun is a god send aye.

    Keep the updates coming with the paint.

    Compressor

    Make sure you put a water trap on it ;). The compressor can blow water and oil through your line and contaminate your paint.

    a water trap is a device which you attach to either the compressor end or gun end. It pretty much filters out moisture in the compressed air. Last thing you want is to have a droplet go through and onto your wet paint...:eek:

    probably, they look like a transparent bulb. with a tap to release the moisture.
    I do a bit of airbrushing and they are a must.

    yes

    This is a good idea to have at the compressor end of the air hose and then a small inline filter on the gun end of the hose. Better safe than sorry :zlove:
    Andy :cool:
