I bought a cheap filter and a regulator at Home Depot (not the mini filter). I
have
no idea how it works (looks like a filter of some type in the bowl) but it
pulls a LOT
of water out of the air line when I was continiously using air (sand blasting
and
wire brushing) for hours at a time... It seems that I'm forever having to
drain the
thing. Maybe not the best, but it a lot better than before (i.e. none)...
