monitoring this thread ... i plan to spray paint myself the whole house we are constructing now ... i will also be buying a vespa air compressor for the job ... is it safe to assume that the PSI requirement for car painting is the same as painting walls and ceilings of a house? ... cheers

Boo!

@Boo,

As far as I know you cannot use compressor and spray gun in painting walls and ceiling using latex paint. The latex/acrylic paint uses airless spray system.

But if your ceiling and wall is cladded by wood and need to finish using spray gun get a 2HP air compressor.
