If you want the best air hoses go with blubird it has a 300 psi working pressure and a 1200 psi burst rating. Flexzilla only has a 300 psi burst rating. Blubird is far more superior. And I haven’t even mentioned it’s temperature ratings are amazing as well -50° to 190°F

How not to

Pressure washer hose....2k degrees? Not thinking so, more like 2k PSI. Great idea though

One thought I had is: Aren't you altering the cooling of your Compressor? Seems to me it would be blocking cooler air's passageway to the pump.

Dumbest

What about removing the junk regulator, as they very all decrease air flow , use in line regulator way better , think I’ll buy the compressor and use the 33 gallon oil less my wife bought me as the storage . Thanks

That's a great setup my dude! I kept messing with used compressors but the rusty tanks always had me worried. This is a really good fix for that.

2000 psi? Maybe? Not degrees?

Complicated😮

Great set up! The link to the blue high pressure hose wont work unfortunately. would you be willing to share the product info for those?

Water in the air compressor comes from moisture in the air.

I have that compressor I just felt it wasn’t big enough that’s why I got a 60 gallon from Lowe’s just under 600 bucks three years ago I got free delivery and 10% off if I got their credit card after I got the compressor I paid off the credit card to capitalize on the 10% discount and the free delivery. I did put an hour meter on my compressor so I know how many hours it’s been running when it shuts off it stops counting even if there’s no electricity for whatever reason it does not lose the time that it has ran.

You should’ve added the drain extension like you did for the oil for the compressor. That’s what I did with mine. It’s not like that mine is a kobolt from Lowe’s. I have a 60 gallon air compressor with a two-stage pump and I have the same tank that you have plugged into my 60 gallon as a extra air tank.

I did something like this many years ago when i started painting cars and just needed to shoot a bumper. But i have great advice from the compressor snobs that are auto painters 😂. Go to your local junkyard and look for a xj jeep Cherokee and pull the ac compressor. Do a grease conversion and drill the outlet a few bit sizes bigger weld some bolts onto that base and get a 4inch pulley for that motor and attach it all together with what you have and youl have a great much quieter 15cfm compressor. You also could look for those Volkswagen vans from the 90s that use the bigger version of that pump as you do have a 2hp motor then you get about 20cfm. But the jeep ones are plentiful and cheap. Lmao my shop has actually ran on a gas powered 2 stage using 3 of these pumps for about 1 year now. I still have my small one unit compressor hooked up to the system and use it 2 yrs later when i dont need the air of the gas compressor. It will hold 120psi while painting a whole car as long as its just me using air after all.

I didnt know the heat made more water. I thught it was fron humidity.

Propably the SMC waterseparator filter after the Cooper doing most of the work here. Mostly would work allmost the same without the aftercooler.

I was recently given one of those it had a bad switch I replaced that but it seems like the threads at the bottom is fine threads and I wanted do something like you have to drain the tank where did you get a fitting to match or it's just me not seeing right

Pressure washer line good for "like" 2000 degrees. I don't think so kid. You need to edit better. Some great ideas here, don't get me wrong.

An aftercooler doesn’t change the moisture content. So, this isn’t doing anything.

thinking about doing the could that system paint a whole car anyone knows of this compressor hoteche and is it any good

She's a screamer!!

Hey-Interesting Video-Thank You---PLEASE PLEASE, PLEASE get your video together-this sucks IMHO

Are you sure about two compressors combined will double CFM? The thing that keeps me from buying the sandblast cabinet is that it requires SOO much cfm (12.0+) to operate.

is it enough air to paint a car

I have scavenged some evaporators from top-freezer fridges I was thinking of doing this with. Just have to make sure it will withstand 150psi. Solder some fittings to inlet/outlet.

The more bens or restrictions air has also make heat !

Harbor Freight is dirt cheap because it's garbage

💣💥💣💥🤣

Nervous camera

YO BRAINEY GUY PULL THE PLUG AND PUT A SHORT PIECE OF PIPE BACK IN THE PLACE OF GHE PIPE PLUG TGEN MOVE THE PLUG OUT TO WHERE YOU CAN DRAIN WITHOUT ISDUES

That hose will melt at 2,000 deg.

After cooler is good, useing it to preheat the cooling air for your compressor is not so good.

Nope. So where is the water going? Think about it - an aftercooler does not REMOVE water - so where is it going?

The transmission and engine oil coolers I looked at are rated at 125 to 150 PSI. My compressor shuts off at 125, so there is no safety margin. An Air Conditioner coil would be better since they are rated well over 200°. Automotive coils would come with fittings. A coil for a small window unit would work, but will require using compression fittings, or use the solder for AC systems (not plumbing solder).

You're gonna get water in the bottom of the tank no matter what, just part of the process of compressing air. The cooler isn't removing moisture from the lines, its just preventing it from turning into water. You need good traps and a dehumidifying machine if you want to paint professionally. I work in a shop and have seen how they run those 500+ gallon tanks. They have dehumidifiers that are about the same size of the tank. What your cooler does is effectively let the tank store more air per cubic inch. This is how two stage pumps work, one pump compresses air a first time, feeds it through a cooler, then compresses the air a second time to make it extremely packed. Which is how those big pumps can push so much air, because they literally compressing air several times before storing it.

Most sane people would add an 1/8 npt nipple and a cap or ball valve to extend that oil drain ...

Could you have used a pump to remove the oil instead of using the drain plug?

Perhaps you could have taken out the oil plug and put a small diameter pipe that is maybe 6" long with either the plug on the end or a shutoff valve, rather than cutting the frame? Similar to the water drain pipe you added...

Water separator prior to dumping in tank probably is helping with no water into tank

I hate to ask the obvious, but where does the water go? You compress humid air and send it through the cooler, it’s going to condense in there . If you don’t trap it, it’s still going to end up in the tank, it’ll just be cold water…. Is your “flow valve” responsible for trapping the condensed water

Great idea to preserve the tank. Is that cooler really rated for that much pressure though? It looks like a regular transmission cooler, and those don't run much pressure, if any. I've got a bigger 5hp 60 gallon compressor, and this kind of thing seems like a good idea to keep water out of the tank for sure.

Great thinking and upgrades! Practically speaking, you almost never have to change compressor oil because there is no combustion byproducts. After cooler must be rated above max compressor pressure. Even though you don't get tank water, keep daily drain habit up because in warm climate that might increase. During once recent garage repair, my compressor ran continuously, I discovered loads of tank water. Any water left in tank can cause internal corrosion, making dangerous tank. Never buy/gift used compressor w/ old tank, because you don't know how tank was cared for; it could be ticking bomb. Work safe.

Stop buying hp's disposable printers there in the business of selling you the ink and giving you the printer. Not to mention their business practices although their support was pretty good.

Would really help for use of a plasma torch. Damp air kills them, good job

Mate you DO NOT need to keep saying OK or right all the time bloody annoying.

i basically did the same thing... works amazingly well.

The flexzilla hose reels are not as good as they could be. My hose reel will not retract all the way when the pressure is on. Depressure it and it goes in all the way. The soft hose expands too much. I’ll take the old school hose reel for sure.

Easier and cheaper to just drain ur tank.

could you be any more of a rookie to CUT the frame out for a DRAIN PLUG? Try a SIMPLE threaded extension tube with a nice shut off on the end. Imagine that dingbell.

Great vid. very informative! Would love to see an additional video of how you trained the beaver to cut that frame...
