You don't need a huge compressor either. I have a craftsman that I think is a 30 gallon and it keeps up fine. It will really save you tons of time. Keep up the good work.
I would love to spray it but have had nothing but frustration the last couple times I sprayed gelcoat. I would have to do some sort of primer to ensure I don't get pinholes and sand that anyway. So just figure I will try rolling and sanding. I've gotten pretty good at sanding anyway....it's my favorite thing ever!
