Hi thanks for the quick reply but as this small compressor has no storage tank i would have thought the air would have to go somewhere and was wondering if i was missing a pressure release valve or something that i could put in line to release the pressure when not spraying if that is at all possible???

Two suggestions, first the more expensive one, buy a compressor that supplies at least 100 psi with a regulator and moisture trap, these sell at most home improvement stores for $50.00 to $300.00. The second, check to see if the one you have is capable of installing a regulator. The reason that it keeps running after you stop spraying is that it is refilling the air pressure to whatever internal pressure regulator is set at, and it probably is working so hard to keep up that it is overheating and shuts itself off, soon it will quit working all together.
