Actually, that won't run all air tools, I know cos I've got one.

It's the cfm's that are important with compressors, a decent spray gun will require a fair amount of air.
Buy a gravity fed spray gun as they are better suited to smaller compressors as they are more efficient.

I bought an impact gun for mine, supposed to require 6cfm, my compressor wouldnt run it properly so I took it back.

Things like sand blasters require 10cfm's + so you've got no chance.

The 50 litre tank will certainly help though.
