I have a chance to buy a new Husky air compressor w a 60 gallon tank for $499
Specs are:
60 gallon tank, oil type pump, 11.5 @90 PSI, and 13.4 @ 40 PSI. Max PSI 155 w 3.7 HP
Price $499
I went to Harbor Freight to compare.
They have a 60 gallon tank unit w 15.8 @90 PSI and 16.4 a@ 40 PSI. Max PSI=165 2 stage motor.Prince $799.
Looks like the specs on the Harbor Freight unit are just a tad better, but very close.
I want to eventually paint my car-single stage.
Is the Harbor Freight unit worth the extra $300?
Generally, it is recommended to have a 60 gallon tank w a range of 14-18 @ 90 PSI for painting a car.
They are both 220.
Thoughts on this appreciated.
