Re: Refillable spray can
Reminds me of something I picked up years back, and haven't seen another
of - a rechargeable compressed air sprayer. Works more or less like the
disposable "canned air" sprayers you get by the half dozen at Fry's or
Microcenter, complete with the plastic straw to direct the air. But this
one had a bicycle pump valve on the bottom so you could refill it as
needed.
Isn't that what Fred pointed to?
Almost, and that part overlaps.
I pointed to a refillable liquid sprayer. (we were talking about
spraying paint)
He's asking about a refillable air duster. (as opposed to the disposable
"Dust-Off" from Fry's, etc.)

Just be sure to use a dryer on your compressor output. Compressed air
can hold a lot of moisture.
Close, but that also is still intended for spraying liquids. The first
Q&A asks, and people comment that for air, it won't hold enough ("5
seconds") It is a tiny size, with low pressure.
A scuba "buddy bottle"/"pony bottle" can be pressurized to 3000 psi,
instead of just 90 - 150 psi. Therefore, it needs a primary stage
regulator, to get it down well below 150, and, as Chuck mentioned, a dryer
if you don't want to spray a lot of water.
Pneumatic tools are typically run at 80 to 120 psi.
90 is the nominal standard, although many shops run at 125, or even 150,
for higher torque, at the expense of reduced tool life and safety.
Your nozzle, for OSHA compliance, must be vented, so that when
"dead-ended" blocking primary outlet, the pressure at the blocked end will
be no more than 30psi. A compliant vented nozzle will put out far more
output pressure (when NOT dead-ended) on 90 psi, than a non-vented nozzle
at only 30 psi.
For blowing dust, you do not want or need more than about 20 psi. A hose
from a spare tire can do.

With lower pressure the need for additional tank and all not required. I do a lot of work with an airbrush as its small volume and you can do fine detail work very well. Airbrushes also need lower volume of air so lower pressures require the regulator. Allison

(as opposed to the disposable "Dust-Off" from Fry's, etc.) Long ago, I used a small air tank under the bench (a portable tire refiller), with a hose and a nozzle. Similar to: https://www.harborfreight.com/5-gallon-portable-air-tank-65594.html but with a standard air tool coupler, instead of an inflator output. Some people, for a "tire bottle", used a scuba tank, with a primary, but not secondary regulator. Now, a bottle of nitrogen is often used. For spraying tiny amounts of paint, is it possible to do an acceptable job?with: https://www.harborfreight.com/34-and-3-oz-airbrush-kit-62294.html -- Grumpy Ol' Fred ci...@xenosoft.com

But this one had a bicycle pump valve on the bottom so you could refill it as needed. I've taken a superficial look or three over the years, but haven't found another. And I've mislaid the one from years back, so I don't have a brand or product name. Anybody have a line on that sort of thing? Maybe what Fred linked will serve... --S.

Thought about that too.

Looks like a great idea but the reviews say otherwise. Dangerous even. I found this. https://duplicolor.com/product/perfect-match-premium-automotive-paint.
