MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR

Moisture is a normal by-product of compressing air. As the moisture builds during

compressor use, it can be carried though the air hose. When using paint spray gun

or sandblasting gun, the use of a special filter to remove moisture from the air line

is highly recommended. Moisture in the compressed air will cause water spots in

paint jobs and cause blasting media to clog the sandblasting gun.
