just need to search for the right sort of thing. I found this with a search for "air distribution"

look at the hotrodders link on the first entry for some useful pictures
how far you go depends on how good you want the result to be

Simple solution, Google PCL drop out filter, very good by all accounts.

Just buy a decent water filter and make sure there is around 18 feet of airline between it and the compressor and you should be ok

I use a secondary tank on the end of the hose the blaster gets plugged in to that and anything else as well . it gives a stable constant air supply and only lets a bit of water in to the final water separator after 20 mins of constant high volume use on the blaster. spraying and air tools no water at all

This is what I've done, get water at the first two drops but none after.
they do look good
like the look of this tooThis is what I've done, get water at the first two drops but none after.
still getting moisture in the paint,
I made two 28mm copper vertical pipes with 22mm taps at the bottom 12ft from the compressor then into 15mm and then flexible airline plus an old air dropout filter next to the paint gun, the first tap collects water second produces none ,the moisture in the paint is about half
spoke to pcl and they recommended a pcl200a dropout filter but that is £300 is there a better cheaper way, tried a pressure pot near the gun but no different,
should I put in more copper pipes? there are lots of filters on ebay and a pcl atc 12 would that be any good the sellers are on holiday till September and I would like to get the job done
