What type of oil do you use in the compressor reservoir?

ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE AIR PUMP NEXT TO THE WATER RESEVORSE






Bill answers...

While all compressor companies that sell their own brand of compressor lube oil may suggest that theirs is the best, I suspect the truth is that most of them are made by the same two or three companies, and private labelled.

That being the case, you should visit your local compressor store and ask them for the best oil that they recommend. It should work just fine in your compressor.

Cheers,

Bill
