I've got a Quincy 5 HP, 2 stage compressor. When you're buying a compressor, look at the CFM rating @ 90-100 PSI. The higher the CFM rating in that range, the better the compressor will perform for blasting, painting,etc. The compressors that TP sells are nice too. I forget the brand, but it's the green ones in the catalog. They run at low RPM, and still have high output. Lower RPM = quieter and last longer! They are USA made compressors too.
