Well, wifey must be growing to accept this new hobby. She brought me a couple of toys from the flea market

The spray gun is a Port Cable PSH1. I guess it is an older gun as info on the internet is a little hard to come by. Should be fun practicing on stuff though...after I do some learning on how to use it.
However, the gun states it is rated at 8.5 SCFM @ 40 PSI where as my compressor is only 6.5 SCFM at 40 PSI. Add another upgrade to my to do list.

It looks like a pressure regulator is attached. You want that and not a "cheater valve" (like a globe valve). Practice with primer on a fender. Acetone is cheap and cleans up the paint gun real good when finished. Your air compressor will keep up with one panel at a time. Then you can use your sanders--keep em flat and moving steady back and forth.
