VonL Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Yup - Did this easily. I took the compressor attachment fittings to ACE Hardware and asked them to point me toward the appropriate quick-release fittings. Surprisingly cheap, simple, standard sized gear. Remember to pickup a spool of Teflon tape along with this stuff, to seal the threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schooner Posted January 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Hey VonL Great suggestions I have an b ACE STORE not far from my home. What I'm looking forward to do is; Get a quick release or non to attach to my SEARS 125PSI 3gal. compressor to my airbrush hose. Thanks Ray a.k.a. schooner IPMS #50394 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nortley Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Does your compressor have a built in pressure regulator? 125 psi won't hurt the airbrush, but could blow the hose out, which is a rude surprise. Sears sells a combination regulator-filter-moisture trap. You'll be spraying at 25 psi or much less, and the regulator will give you clean, almost dry air at the pressure you need.
