[QUOTE="Coyote Shadow Tracker, post: 2535636, member: 116439"] Thanks much for your advice. I mentioned in previous posts that will be using Quincy 5HP Four Cylinder Two Stage compressor and 60 gallon tank. There is an air filter on incoming air to the compressor. Between the Compressor and Tank I have a "AfterCooler with a AirFilter and Water Seperator & drain" This will help with mositer removal after the compressor and before entering the Tank. After the Tank I have 50' of "L" Copper pipe in an up & down configuratation - Seven 6' sections with moisturer drain valves at the bottom of each section. This will help with any condensatation in the air after the Tank and before the Refrigerated Dryer. This Refrigerated Dryer should have all the remaining moister out, but to make sure I also have Air Filters and Water Seperators(desicant) before the air goes into the Creakote System or the Media Blasting station. So we have Four redundant moisture removal cleaning sections before the air gets to the Cerakote/Media for Blasting/or parts cleaning. Expensive but will have top grade DRY air for the operatation and piping that should last for many years. Thanks again Len & Jill [/QUOTE]
