Looking for air compressor - rent or buy
Hey all,
Not a big poster on here, but always reading your very useful information
I was wondering if anyone in WA has an air compressor that they're looking to sell/rent out?
I'm looking at doing LVLP as I'm only priming and then will be spray booth top coat, so I'm only after around 75ltr tank, HP2.0 - 2.5HP,
5-7CFM.....from what I've read that's what I need.
Anyone??
Sorry admin if this is in the wrong section, but couldn't find a good place in buy/sell

If there are none available, you can always buy a new one, and if it has minimal use, and still looks new, you should be able to sell it for 3/4 of
what you bought it for. I know omeone who did that with a welder. Bought a $1300 unit, and sold it 18 months later for $1000. It still looked new, and
he was able to use a really good quality MIG for his whole project, and the new owner got a bargain too.

Thanks Hellbus, I've been looking around but I'm being a bit stingy and thought I'd ask around first teee heeee
If not then that'll be the go
