From AG: "For optimal performance, the Autogeek Tornador Car Cleaning Gun works best with an air compressor that produces 5 CFM or more at 90 psi."



My air compressor is a 12 gallon, 3HP, and 135psi max, but only has 3.5CFM @ 90psi.



I wanted to get the Tornador but if it won`t work well because of my compressor then I`ll hold off on getting it.

I am not sure why people but a tornador?



Here is a little something people with air compressors can try. Spray your stains with pre-cleaner, wait a few moments then using a stream nozzle gently go over the stained areas. See how it works.





Oh...I have no idea about your tornador and CFM.....don`t have one. Sorry

I have the Tornador and absolutely love it. It makes interior and engine detailing measurably easier and faster. I`m not sure your compressor will quite keep up with it though. For one, the CFM is too low, it needs to be as close to 5 as possible. Your larger air tank will help, though but not enough in my opinion. I bought this compressor (http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200400069_200400069) and it works great, but for the same price, this one (http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200409003_200409003) is even better.
