need technical advice about painting tool

[wildrider]

Hello!
I will repaint the bumper after the holidays. I want to do it by myself. I have the basic equipment and air compressor. However the motor is intended for the 3phase. I will need to adjust it somehow for the 1ph. How to do that? What adapter will I need?

Change the motor for a 1ph one, it'll be cheaper than a 3ph converter or a single to three phase inverter.

You might be able to star wire the motor, depends on the actual motor though.

Thanks, you are right. I compared price for some phase converters and it is very expensive. Good one may cost around $500. I decided to acquire this
