Timbertech Airbrush Compressor, High-performance Single-Piston Oil-free Mini Compressor AS186 with 3L Tank, Regulator, Moisture Trap for Hobby, Cake Decoration, Tattoo, Automotive Graphic, Make-up

I upgraded from a cheap online compressor, and the difference is night and day! The TIMBERTECH AS186 provides steady airflow with its 3L tank, eliminating annoying pulsation issues. Compared to bulky and expensive hardware store compressors, this is quieter, more compact, and much more affordable while delivering professional results. If you're into Gunpla or miniature painting, this is a must-have upgrade!

Use it with my airbrushes. Is quiet and maintains pressure while in constant use. Very easy to set up and maintain and takes up a small amount of space under the desk. Great value.

This is a really nice small, portable compressor and tank. The manufacturer (in the Netherlands) recommends it for use with airbrushes, etc. and suggests you don't use it for other applications. I am not doing airbrush work. I bought it with the intention of using it for one of those "other" non-recommended applications. I'm quite happy and satisfied with the results I get. I wanted to find an air compressor with a small storage tank, which was light-weight, easy to carry and move about, and had just enough storage capacity to use it as an air duster/blower, for small technical and office jobs. I attached a cheap air hose intended for airbrush use, and an industrial blower handle with a lever valve and put a small restricted tube nozzle on that blower. It works great as a light-duty duster. I use it to blow particulates and cleaning fluids off glass optics and other technical items. If you spray air continuously, it does drop its pressure a lot, but if you just wait a minute for it to restore pressure in its attached tank, it is back to life and ready. It is very quiet when running. This compressor/tank is way better than using cans of compressed refrigerant chemical for dusting. They "give up" quickly as soon as their internals get cold, which is fast! I highly recommend this device for smaller, light-duty dusting tasks, if you have the right nozzle and valve unit.

This was the first airbrush compressor I had ever purchased. And I got to say, its performed flawlessly since day one. Connected to my hoses and airbrush with ease. Very quiet and for the price, it is hard to beat. If you are in the market for your first airbrush compressor and want something that is built well and won't break the bank, this is a great fit.

Good compressor that keeps up with my use which is airbrushing. It feels and looks durable, and haven't had an issue with reliability for the times I used it. It's a little loud, but still manageable to use indoors without a problem. I just throw some music on and it's no issue at all. The only problem is that it has no fan, so the motor can heat up over long use, but in the times I've used it for airbrushing, it has never been a problem. The carrying handle is super nice since I carry it from storage into my workshop all the time.

I was expecting this thing to be much louder than it is, I'm pleasantly surprised. One minor thing, that I won't even deduct points for is that the pressure regulator know was initially extremely tight. To the point where I didn't even think it did anything until I watch a video so be aware of that. It is not broken, just might be too tight, then it works perfectly. Pressure holds, recharges quickly, and it just works.

This compressor is a wonderful addition to my model workspace. It is quiter than my tankless compressor and provides very consistent air pressure and volume. All of my airbrushes preform flawlessly with this compressor. I would recommend it for the hobbyist or professional use compressor. The pressure regulator works well and keeps the pressure where you set it.

I needed a compressor to airbrush in a small space and I needed something that I could use while others slept. This fit the bill to a tee.
