I have an 80 gallon 2 stage DeVillbiss.

I can paint a whole car and it will only cycle on 4 or 5 times for the whole job. HVLP gun

Using a D/A, it will run constantly.

Die grinder it will run say 60% of the time.

My bead blast cabinet it will run pretty much constantly and will shut off about 5-10 seconds after you release the trigger on the blaster.

It's big enough for pretty much everything I guess. If you get tired of it running, just stop using it for a few seconds and it will fill up and shut off.

I absolutely would not even consider anything smaller than a 60 gallon. 80 gallon is better. I got mine at Lowes for 720 bucks 4 years ago.
