Just take note that MOST compressors are quoted in PISTON DISPLACEMENT and not true air delivery FAD.

In order to size the compressor and spray gun correctly you need the numbers in FAD ( Free Air Delivered )

Typically a 14cfm 3hp compressor will only deliver 9cfm FAD so it will only run a 9cfm spray gun.
