If it's the same one I got last year, they are standard, got some from a local car show and they're fine.

If you REALLY want to use it on your spray gun, I think the lubricator can be removed from the regulator. I bought one the other day but I have only had a quick glance at it, so I am not completely sure if it can be done, but I have a feeling that you would get away with it.
I am assuming that there is some sort of O ring seal where the 2 units are joined together, and I am also assuming that there will be a suitable thread to connect the quick release couplings.
If I remember, I'll pull mine apart tonight and let you know!
Cheers for the heads up steveo ,, never thought of that
Next time i am in the garage i will look at it

Well the answer is YES!
Yes it does come apart, yes there is an O ring, and yes are threaded ports for the airline couplings.
The only slight issue is that the joining piece is also the mounting bracket, but it will be an easy job to knock up another bracket to hold it up.
If you take it apart, make sure that you don't lose the O ring as you separate the two halves. Don't ask me how I know that

bought a regulator yesterday and stripped off the oiler. looked, from the box, that there has been oil in or neat it. took it off. fitted it to the compressor and then found that the regulator was knackered. Took it back and got another one. The guy didn't check either, but i had put it back together. needn't have bothered. kept the spare fittings though

The compresor is a ball of sh**e. Got one to see what it was like, First the unregulated output decieded to split and send a brass chunk across the shop, then the oil filler cap shot off and split in 2. I expected no better. Got my 100 euro back though.

next weekend they have circular saws that are suitable for use on steel sheet. Ive used one of these to cut 3mm steel sheet in the past. they're not listing the spare blades now but they will be available from other sources. you will suitable ppe to use them and be careful of the hot chippings that they throw out
