oh and I think 60 PSI is alot of pressure to spit out, considering the tires on my car hold abot 40 max psi? or was it 44?

It's not just the PSI, it's the CFM!! Hook up your hobby comp. to a car tire and it'll take MINUTES to add enough air to notice, not seconds!!! And that's why it'll be really lame when it comes to cleaning your car, too.

No biggie, since you HAVE a big compressor, but for those who don't have anything, I stand by my opinion. Dunno which kind of 'industrial' comp. you have, but if it's a big stationary one in your garage or something, you might be able to work an air line down to your den for whatever you might need. You could fire it up early, and if you're working late, you'd have enough air on tap for HOURS of airbrushing without the compressor firing up & waking anyone.

But as I'm also into woodworking, PLEASE don't let me dissuade you from buying ANY new tools!!! In fact, you should get a Fuji HVLP system just for spraying that final coat of Faskote!!
