I can get the Leyzene up to 200psi before I release it. Anyway just some random thoughts.
Agreed. Using a high pressure nozzle with the compressor will/would give the blast needed. Compressors don’t just air up things slowly obviously…it all depends on what nozzle you use.
The big diff between the 2 is that I don’t have to manually pump up pressure between blasts when using a compressor. Took me multiple attempts even using the compressor at work. After pumping the AirShot for a few attempts….I tired of the hassle in a hurry.
