Sorry! tdh, I was not very clear about that. Wether you are using a compressoror or a co2 bottle thre should be a "regulator". The job of this gadget is to detrmine the pressure of the air that comes ou of your gun.
If for example you did not have this and used the c02 at bottle pressure you could puncture a customers skin.
There are pot on this site advising of the correct spray pressure. I however find that I have to alter it for different inks and guns and even weather.
Today I think my presure was around 15 psi and I was getting good results. I have found with ABA inks that although they are excellent they do need a little more pressure than some others.
Be careful compressed air/co2 is dangerous if it enters the skin.
Hope this helps.
Regards Billywhizz
