Best Compressor For Texturing


I spray with a hopper and have always used the one big tank air comp. (15 to 20 gal.) My question is, would a 2 tank comp. like imglo makes be better?

Over the years i have used so many compressors tried them didn't like them , to bulky always tipping over in the van to heavy and clumsy , trying to find decent power ( seems like to many using the same circuit so my compressor wouldn't run on full capacity hard on motor) so i decided to go to a gas compressor which i have a two tank porter cable with a 5 horse engine , I leave it outside which is so convenient and u can run a lot of hose without losing air pressure , it will run about 3-hours on a gallon of gas and much easier to maneuver around with wheel-barrow handles and a front wheel , i use it to run a small apla-tech pump for spraying it works supper
