Re: In the market for an air compressor

The gallons really doesn't mean much. The cfm is what you need to be concerned with. CFM is the amount of air produced which is the amount of air that will be available while you are using an air tool (such as a paint gun or blaster) The only difference the tank size is going to matter is how often the compressor has to run. The 60 gallon you are looking at is rated for 135 psi which is more than enough for 99% of anything you will use (most tools are rated for 90 psi). For normal home use or a small shop the 60 gallon will do anything you need plus some.
