Aero-M Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I'm after a small CHEAP compressor, doesn't need to be anything special as I only need it to use as a blow gun for cleaning dirt from off road buggys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't no anything about them so that's helpfull. What is the one you are using? on another note wouldnt a jet wash be a better alternative. Don't want to be blasting water onto it as there is lots of electrics, bearings etc. I clean all my models by hand and it takes ages, I was thinking along the lines of using muc-off and a compressor to get the worst of then finishing by hand.
