I recently bought this used 27 gallon quiet compressor for what I think is a good price with the accessories that it came with.
After watching a YouTube review of this unit, I knew the compressor was supposed to fill up in 7 minutes. So after checking it was empty and little water was coming out from the bottom, I started it. It pass that 7 minute test, which made me happy.
Here is the beast!

The compressor was modified and that is actually what attracted me to it.
That being said, I would appreciate comments or recommendations on the setup.
Now for the modification. The previous owner removed the original face panel and installed a filter dryer combo.
Then there is a high flow outlet and a regular outlet.
Last in the network is a regulator, a high flow outlet, a pressure gauge, and a flip valve (see second picture below).

With this compressor, I am hoping to paint small areas on my car (inner trunks, cabin, inner wheel well, ...).
Would anyone have suggestion/comments on the current plumbing?
I think there are good elements but I am considering making changes as I don't think I need three outlets.
Last, the compressor came with a couple of paint gun, one seems to be for details, while the other is this "fancy" HF gun with 1.4 tip.
For the detail gun, can this be used to spray harder to reach areas such as under the light buckets or this gun simply isn't of any use for our cars?
