Hi All - avoid automotive/commercial air compressors as the air is
oiled - water & stuff in there too. Air for Paint guns is a better
alternative, but you still have the electro-static discharge problem
(air stream acts as wire). IT Vacuums are often reversible to either
vacuum or blow air. Shop-vacs too, if you're in a hurry...
