Air Compressor Question/Painting Car?

Question

I need a 60 gallon, around 5 hp, two stage, at least 10 CFM @ 90 PSI compressor to paint a car and run some power tools, including a 10m gallon sand blaster.

I want to spend around $800.00 for it.

What would be the best one to get?

Answer 1

Well Husky is a typical brand they sell at HOME DEPOT but it isnt very industrial, if your looking for something in your garage you can go with something cheap suck as a husky or ingersoll rand and those are the more popular want to be  industrials.. try a campbell hausfeld that is what i have I can paint a car with EASE and run a D/A not 2 thought if your looking for something better u have to go up on the HP... to about 10 or 11.  and thats also twice as much in price.

a 5 HP should only cost about $600 and 10-11HP  anywhere from 1500 to 3000...
