hi all, i bought a small desiccant air filter that screws on the paint gun. i cant get over 20psi out of it even with 135 going in. is this normal for one of these things? i cant get enough air out of it to use my finish line conventional gun. thanks, dave.

the flow is is in the right direction, in fact, it does the same thing in either direction. it's just a cheap harbour freight filter which could be the problem. i did'nt know if they all had that much pressure drop or not.

ya get what ya pay for. i personally upgraded my moisture removal at the compressor and dont use one of them any more. with that and a regulator at the gun it was too much and i havent had a problem with the set up.
