John brings up a point that Jay (Hotrodpaint) and others have mentioned.....you are going to spend more on supplies than you ever thought. Every time we walk out of the paint store we have a little box and a tab of several hundred dollars. Thank God they throw in the paint sticks and strainers!

I don't know if it has been mentioned in this thread, I may have missed it, but you want DRY air coming out of your compressor. Drain the tank before you start, if you have an inline dryer bleed it, and maybe even use one of those little ball dryers that screw right before the gun. With humidity in Summer you have to do all you can to keep moisture from getting into the paint.
