    Different paint types require different methods of removal.

    A few things to try are..

    Easy Off oven cleaner
    Castrol super clean degreaser
    DOT Brake Fluid

    Be careful how you treat others, because the ones you step on while on your way up! Just might be the ones who step on you on your way back down.

    id say with a tank, once the tanks full of air than u dont have to hear the compressor run, tankless youd hear it the whole time.

    What does a compresser do?

    IT COMPRESSES AIR

    compressed air doesn't just float around?

    in other words, 9999999 out of 10000000 times, your gunna want a tank

    just like, 9999999 out of 10000000 times, your gunna want a car that has an engine.
    most airbrush compressors don't have a tank, and they work fine.
