Airbrush Compressors... purely professional opinions.

Opinions?  without supporting parameters lack merit...
Professional?  a what level, looking for a Local 706 member?

that said, does a Cosmetology license and published editorials and print ads work?

If so, Dinair's Compressor is designed to work extremely well with Dinair's product... which it does fine with... albeit lacks a pressure gauge which initially has merit for learning the craft, however with time you'll not be looking at a gauge but rather listening to the hiss of the gun and the feel of the airstream on the soft skin on the underside of your wrist which is the most important feedback necessary to attain excellence in application...

However your BIO states you're primarily a bridal artist thus I would recommend you look at TEMPTU's S/B product... Why? bridals can't cry it off... it doesn't rub off on the grooms attire, it is tenacious in wearability and has a silky smooth dewy look...  When doesn't S/B work?  for clients with large pores I prefer a heavy cream product with the ability to spackle the pore surface smooth...

With S/B your want a compressor that can maintain a constant working pressure (usually half the advertised max) of approximately 20psi... anything less will frustrate your efforts to master the craft...

What do I use?  In my studio an Iwati Smart Jet Pro  this meets and exceeds the demands of my workflow...

On location?  TEMPTU Air with my 40% pro discount it's cost effective and a good match for my workflow...

btw, I have hundreds and hundreds of hours on both the aforementioned compressors and they preform flawlessly (when properly maintained).  bottom line?  both pay the bills, enough said...
