    try coleiro valley road. still i beleive that to maximize airbrushing you need a compressor with a reservoir which this one does not have.

    Ray if you need a small compressor which I do not use anymore and I can lend it to you but as Adrian said it is noisy ... but then you can always invest in cheap earplugs Surprised

    I said it makes SOME noise. its not a jackhammer! +you get use to it in time. if you put it under the table and on something stable it shouldnt annoy you.

    If I remember correctly, Aldo has a good silent compressor which also has a small reservoir. Try asking him.
