I use an extremely similar compressor to the one @JackEb linked. A Senco rather than hitachi but its pretty much the same thing. Actually it might even be the same with a different name. I love it!
For fabric you use about 50psi or so. With artwork on paper or hard surfaces 20psi and below is common.
This also means you need a lot of that air on fabric. Those cans really would last about one minute at the pressure you need.
I think you will find very few people who will recommend any newer Paasche airbrushes here. My understanding is the quality is very inconsistent in recent years. Understanding your budget may be very small though...Im guessing the paasche you are looking at is somewhere in the $50-$60 range?
If so it might possibly still be one of the better brushes you can get for that kind of money.........hmm what is your budget for your brush?
Yes there is one adapter needed to fit an airbrush hose to a regular compressor.....except in the case of the paasche hose, I believe it already has the correct end on one side to screw onto the threads of a regular compressor from a hardware store.
