Can I use any compressor with my airbrush?

We recommend using an airbrush-specific compressor that provides stable airflow and adjustable pressure. Not every air compressor is suitable for direct use with an airbrush. In addition to having a compatible 1/8" BSP air hose connection, the compressor should be capable of delivering stable working pressure and continuous airflow suitable for airbrushing. Ideally, it should also include pressure regulation and moisture filtration to help prevent spraying problems caused by pressure fluctuations or moisture entering the air line. Industrial air compressors are not recommended for direct connection to an airbrush. If one must be used, additional equipment such as a low-pressure regulator, water separator, and oil/air filtration system should be installed.
