Hi guys! I'm looking at spraying my vehicle with Rust Check before winter. I have an old spray gun and pressure pot, however I want to purchase a wand kit from Lemmer (see pics attached).
Any one know here I can buy a tip like the one pictured so I can attached the wands to my old spray gun? It...
Doh! Rookie mistake, I had the breaker plugged into a single leg of the panel. Dropped the breaker down 1 spot to span both left and right has sides of the panel, flipped the breaker to the on position and she purrs like a cat.

Update:
I changed the oil and flipped the breaker on and turned the disconnect to the on position and nothing. I guess it's better than sparks flying and parts exploding. :)

I'm gonna finish the wiring tomorrow and I'll post pics. My goal is to get this thing running by the weekend. Gotta change the timing belt in my truck and air tools will make my life much easier.

Interesting note, the guy I bought the compressor from said it was hooked upto a three phase panel. I just assumed he was mistaken...
I recently purchased a used 80 gallon single phase compressor. I installed a new 30 amp breaker in my electrical panel and ran 10-2 Romex to a disconnect near the compressor. From the disconnect I'm running a 4' piece of 10-2 Romex to the compressor.
The compressor came with a magnetic starter...
