Compressor Question

[Gellso]

How long do u guys get before your airbrush compressor overheats and shuts off?
I get about 15 minutes. Is this about the norm or should I get a more modern one?
The one I have is about 15 years old.
Cheers,
Grant

I presume yours doesn't have a tank Grant? Presuming it's the continually-running type and it overheats in that time it would be worth running it for shorter periods deliberately, basically shut it off when you're not actively shooting air through the AB.
