Bryan, I agree with all that has already been said. I had an oil-less unit and it was LOUD, so loud it was almost impossible to stay in the garage with it running, it was LOUD, You could clearly here it inside the house and it would wake up the family at night ...did I mention that it was LOUD. I replaced it with a 60 Gallon conventional compresser, Yes it still makes noise but from inside the house it is muffled and fills the tank much faster then the oilless. If you can swing a 60 gallon it is worth the extra $$ air tools eat up a lot air pretty fast and the extra capacity is nice to have and necessary for a cut off tool or die grinder.

Here it is: I want to buy an air compressor, and I see they come in 3, 4, and 6 gallon. Will a 3 gallon suffice for most the work we face in our renovations? I first need it to remove some stubborn bolts, and eventually will need it to do some painting, and perhaps run some pneumatic sanding/grinding/cutting tools. Any advice will be appreciated, but since this is a stretch (re: topic) it would be best if you reply privately.
