compressor water problem any suggestions


Recommended Posts

heres my problem ive been working on my caprice to get it ready to paint and i got it in primer and went thru 4 mini desicant and 3 paper filter that screw on the gun. spraying a quart of epoxy primer and a gallon of primer on the car. my compressor is a 80 gallon ingersoll rand single stage pump rated 18.1 cfm at 90 psi well my water prob coming thru the lines is so horrible lol i dont wanna spray the paint and waste a bunch of cash on paint i have 2 filter/water separators on 1 line already roughly 30 ft away from the compressor that im using and it helps but not very well im getting roughly 0.5 to 1 tablespoons of water coming thru the lines every few mins. does anyone have any suggestions on a way to get rid or help get rid of the water coming thru the lines.

Many times its simply atmospheric conditions that play a role in that, but it could also be insufficient separators or low quality hose
