    that looks like a regulator to me should be fine where it is

    well im an electrician its what i do for a living your switch and just like your breaker it rated at 30amps for only a short time the problem with the switch is when you guessed it during startup and turning off while running will start to carbon arc inside the switch and it maybe years before it goes bad not in a few tries. I stand by my prediction and only time will tell

    the main problem going with a wall switch is the spring pressure behind the contacts when you close the switch you want a fast positive connection and when opening you want it to be just as fast to keep the arc at a minimum

    when it goes bad take it apart and check out how cheaply its made and if ya want I will send you a contactor you just pay me shipping . I will send ya a couple one you can take apart and one you can use for whatever you want.

    Ya electrical work is not hard but you better know what your doing.

    as for your switch you could use a knife disconnect switch(no fuses or breaker) ideally you would use a switch and a contactor (101 ways to do it )

    I will predict your switch fails on the wall first,because of the Startup load on the compressor will be around 40amps that lil light switch will be toast so as for being safer I would would disagree.

    everything should be fine with what you have for now gotta start somewhere

    ya the PPG stuff I bought havent gotten to use it yet as its frickin cold out(no garage heat yet)
    My jobbers price is very high for toners so I get my toners online I needed a quart of DMD1605 jobber was 171.25+tax got it online for 83.00 shipped

    well there was nothing wrong with it being plugged in the outlet you just would of needed to change the wire to an SOW 12/3 cord. But looks nice now. On a side note there is no reason for the switch either you could of ran the wire from the breaker directly to the compressor as it has a switch on it. so now you have 2 switches within 3 feet of each other (one day you will switch one off and swear like mad when your compressor doesn’t start lol).

    I have a copy of the latest NEC book if ya need anything just ask

    12ga wire is good to 20amps no need to go bigger

    do a search for R-82P its another honda red color but with pearl (contains Russet and red pearl)
    you maybe already familiar with this color (this is the darker red color)

    Color name Cassis Red Mica PPG DBC # 4589
    this is just a basecoat color

    you could have a jobber mix you a sample of the color r81 and add red pearl to it then do a spray out
    to see how it looks

    The R81 is a tricoat color, I would Put the pearl in the midcoat(will get expensive making test mixes but you will get what you want)

    ya I meant I would buy the whole setup depending on how much toner was left have him give me a inventory list of whats there (maybe you can PM me his email or I can give you mine).

    November 10, 2010 at 9:17 am #25091

    whats the number for the global stuff by you I need toners for the rest of my global stuff (works great on trailers)

    It started on ebay bougtht 10 Bottles of pearls $75.00 . then he said he had a bunch more and if I would Buy it all he would give me a good deal so I bought all he had for $250(so got full global system) next I looked on craigslist and found a DBC system ,with rack,computer,scale for $1500.00
    I offered him $1000.00 and he said sure. so I put both systems on the rack I took the drive shaft out of the top row so they wont spin and on the last two shevles on the bottom have material packed behind the toners (need bigger rack lol). the only bad thing is there are 6 empty DBC toners that from my local jobber cost $1400.00 to replace(OMG!)

    found another global systerm on craigslist
    http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/pts/2045997949.html

    (I hear not so good stuff about global matching)

    Sikkens Autobase system here
    http://desmoines.craigslist.org/pts/1978841097.html

    I just searched all the cities around me. I just searched for “ppg” there maybe different brands but thats all I looked for.
