Hooked up oiler, filter, and air regulator to my compressor. Can I still paint with an oiler?

I have a 7.5 hp compressor and I’m just about to buy an air regulator, filer, and oiler. I use a lot of pneumatic tools that require oil but I also paint cars. Would I be able to use the same hose that has the oiler hooked up to it to paint my cars? I think the oil in the hose would get into the paint. Do I need to change hoses every time?

what air compressor to buy or look for?

I am looking for a air compressor that can handle a paint gun and "maybe" a air drills ?(if not thats fine). im not willing to spend more then 0 on one but if i can find one that can do the job for less that would be awesome. I just need info on what to look for and does the HP mean any thing as in how fast it can fill the tank and whats the diff from getting a 3 gal and a 20 gal tank?. and should i get one that uses oil or a non oil one?

which air compressor do i need?

would these specs work for using a compressor to paint a vehicle with? I dont have the money for a large 80 gallon compressor, but this tank has a cfm of 7.5 at 90 psi which i hear is what is best, but its only 6 gallons. Would this compressor work better than a 33 gallon compressor with 4.9 cfm at 90 psi? Thank you. Here are the specs.

2 HP Oil Lubricated Motor.
6 Gallon Tank.
CSA approved.
Air regulator with quick disconnect fitting.
Metal air filter.
Light weight with easy pull handle.
Powder coated tank. Specifications:
110 volt
115 psi working air pressure.
5CFM @ 40 psi

what kind of air compressor pump do i need?

Hi i have a old Fliteway air compressor tank rated at 150 psi and have a bunch of 1/2 – 3 hp electric motors laying around my junk pile and i was thinking i could just buy a compressor pump or take one off of a car to get air in this thing.

What size pump should i buy for a 8 gallon 150psi tank?

Iv seen one at harbor freight for 150$ double piston model with no brand rated at 145psi 1000rpm 3hp, don’t know if it would work it looks a little much for what i want to do with it unless i get a bigger tank or more tanks like propane.

go kart idle

im thinking about putting a straight pipe on it… it would probably sound nice. Anyway this is a go cart i restored. I bought it with no engine, just the frame. The frame was partly complete and was very rusty. I sanded every inch of the go cart and primed it with this rust protection primer. One day, I will find the chance to get around to painting it completely with my air compressor. It has a 5.5 hp Japanese honda copy. It runs great and goes about 30 mph. This is an ongoing prject that will continue to improve.
