Pressure means nothing, what you need is airfllow. Most compressors will give you 120 psi but not all give you a lot of cfm, get a compressor that puts out the most cfm you can afford! Mine puts out 18 cfm and is just big enough to run my sandblaster. A large tank is also a plus, it will keep your compressor from running constantly and overheating the motor. Absolutely stay away from oil less compressors, they suck as far as I'm concerned!
