I am looking to purchase a air compressor to do painting and run impact wrenches and ratchets and was wondering if anyone had use this one DeWalt Heavy-duty 200 Psi 15 Gallon 120 Volt Electric Wheeled Portable Workshop Compressor

here is the link to site

thxs alot

 

from the site

 

you want more than 15 gallon to run air tools and paint guns, trust me!! I don't care what some guy claims, my dad has a 30 gallon I borrow often and it is barely enough to run a high speed air drill and or die grinder

 

sears has craftsman 33gal for $300

 

ya know, i'VE been thinking of getting a home compressor as I hate running into my shop or borrowing my dad's for home use, and I was thinking about the craftsman ones as that's what most of my home tools are......^^^^^^so is that what you have??? if so how's it work??

 

nope but a craftsman will be my next purchase there is a few that im looking at sears, ill let you know which one i pick up

 

lollolollol


umm no seriously you need a 80 gallon 2 stage if you want to be able to use a comprssor to paint a car or use high consumption tools like DA sanders etc

 

thxs for all the input , i decided on this compressor

Husky 2.0 Running HP 30 Gallon Vertical Compressor

Model VT6315


http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/...0003+90139+985

price is 399 only 10 dollars more than the dewalt

 

just know that is way to small for most extended work, and you will never be able to paint a car notice the CFM is very very low

for example: A solid CAST IRON, twin cylinder compressor pump for extreme durability. Offers 135 PSI maximum pressure and air delivery 6.5/5.5 SCFM @ 40/90 PSI. Features pneumatic tires, efficient Solberg style intake filter, and a heavy-duty handle.

this is a mill of the road impact from sears http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00918852000P?vName=Tools&cName=Compr essors+%26+Air+Tools&sName=Automotive+Air+Tools#de scriptionAnchor

requirements:
Produces 500 ft./lbs. of ultimate torque great for heavy equipment maintenance, auto repair. 1/4 in. air inlet. Average 5.0 SCFM at 90 psi.




you will barely have enough air to run that




this die grinder takes more air than that compressor will provide




this primer gun uses 8.5 scfm at 40 psi that compressor is not enough for primer either
