Hey everyone first time poster here.

Had major problem Sun night. I have a Ripmax T RCP 104 compressor and after 3-4 minutes use there was a muffled hissing noise and a loss of pressure to the airbrush. The hose that runs from the top of the unit to the cylinder had split!! Not sure why this happened?

Anyone got any ideas/advice. Tried repairs using duck tape and superglue but nothing worked so have defunct bit of kit.

Does anyone know if spares parts are available? Are there shops that can make repairs? Looks like all it needs is a new hose.

If it's a no no and I need to spend hard earned money on a new unit what would you recommend?

Hi Steve,

Just get a new hose from a compressor shop....these hoses are pretty well standard on that type of compressor.

Also try an automobile parts shop or a renovation center...
they all sell compressors and should carry parts.

Glue and tape will not work as you have found out.

Cheers,
Joe

Cheers Joe. I'll try my nearest DIY store first then maybe auto shop after if no joy.
