There are good and bad compressor/tank combos. I usually tell folks,
who ask, that a minimum of 5 gallons is necessary for painting of any
kind - unless you're doing airbrush work, which demands less air. Be
sure to match the CFM demands specified on your paint guns to the CFM
rating of the compressor/tank - that is, make sure the compressor/tank
exceeds the requirements of the gun by a comfortable margin.
Most of what you find in Harbor Freight will do fine for most household
work.
