Bill,
 
I had a similar setup as you and used a 110 volt compressor for years without 
any air supply problems. My compressor had a 20 gallon tank. I personally never 
held my finger on the trigger that long so air supply was not a issue. Since 
you paint professionally your requirements were probably much greater than 
mine!!! For someone you only uses a blast booth once in a while why go through 
the expense of installing a 220 circuit.

I meant to say previously you need a 220v compressor to properly supply my 
blast booth. My new compressor is just slightly larger capacity than yours. You 
should be fine. I watched the pressure gauge recently when I was blasting truly 
continuously for a few minutes. My compressor held the PSI but did not increase 
so it s not THAT large. The key is it recovers much faster than my other unit 
which was the largest 110v I could find.
 
The blast gun came with the booth so that is all I know. 
 
Thank You,
Bill Lane
