The right compressor for the job?

They have this at the Hf close to me on sale.
Would this be adequate for painting? Because, the next step up is like $800 and would kind of be expensive for a one time thing.

I have a 5hp, 30 gallon. It is good for spraying.Most air tools it's plenty. Running an airsander you wait awhile to let catch up. Sandblasting you need 5 times as much air, not bigger tank, but bigger compressor.

I shouldnt be blasting much if any, so i should be good in that respect.
Cant wait to get working on the body.

Well if it goes well with mine. I have a line of friends that need new paint.
Is House of Kolors easy to use and straight forward stuff? Whenever I hear about paint they are usually mentioned.

That compressor should work pretty good. It will be too small for sandblasting, (need 10+ HP for this), and it might get slow when working with a D/A sander, D/As use a lot of air, especially when operated above recomended pressures like I alwaysdo...
It should work pretty well with a spray gun.
For the moneyI would consider making this purchase....I like that it is an oil type compressor...
