What is the difference between buying an air compressor such as those sold at Lowes and Home Depot and an airbrush compressor? I saw HVLP guns and air compressors with more power, regulators, and far less cost. Could someone explain why this wouldn't be a viable alternative?

Your not going to run an HVLP gun with an compressor , it's should be with an Turbine motor . Be careful because they are all used for different applications (paint, lacker etc.)
