This is the compressor that I have. I'm totally confused about the psi. I'm not sure if I understnd correctly or not but this is what I have gotten out of everything I have read : anything over 15 psi will blow holes ?
I have contacted the mfg for info on it.

The compressor was by no means a cheap compressor and it was in my professional airbrush/spray tanning kit. The ladies at my beauty supply had no clue what psi output this had. Any experts who may know? If you didn't buy a complete airbrush kitw/ compressor what whould you look for when buying a different brand airbrush?

I appreciate all advice and info. I guess me being a newbie I want it all now and am dying to play and my classes don't start until Friday. I want to make my daughter a birthday which is the end of March.

Thanks a bunch!

Congrats. on your new purchase! I wish I could be of more help, but If it were me, I would just start spraying with it and see how smooth you can get with it? I'm sure it won't be too hard. The psi just means how hard of spray it comes out with (how much pressure per square inch). So, I'd just start spraying until I like the look I'm getting! Good luck and we can't wait to see your creations! I'd love to get one of those....someday soon...I got my projector for my Christmas gift! All things in good time thumbs_up.gif
