Compressors

[h4rri]

I need a compressor to spray 2 pack, cellulose and coach paint [the latter at a pinch] and handle some low level shot blasting. Any clues as to the minimum spec in terms of HP, Drive and capacity?

Don't want to spend the earth and I already have a small 25l unit to run my breathing gear so this will be dedicated to the above.

More important is Free Aid Delivery (FAD) measured in CFM.

You probably want at least 7cfm for the abrasive blasting, which is likely to be the hungriest of the processes you mention.

Thanks, I'm looking at guns which range from 5-10 CFM so I'm guessing a 100 litre 3HP belt drive system [10.8 CFM] would be ideal.

Thanks for the reply

Isn't that what we send to Africa?

Maybe Free Air Delivery...
