Get a set of attachments from Aldi when they have their electric ones in again. The abrasive drum sander attachments with rough abrasive are as good as you will get for removing rust. Some on ebay worth trying

I find the the oiler that comes with it difficult to use, so have one of these...

If you fit a male tail on the inlet and female on outlet, you can insert directly to you compressor regulator. Plus you need a new airline unless you do not spray paint as oil can get into the hose. Screwfix and Tool sation sell coiled plastic air line...

That’s an oil trap, not an oiler! ?

Whats if for do I need to bother with one?

Air tools need lubricating. You can just put a couple (and only a couple) of drops of air tool oil down the inlet coupler every day you use it. The in-line oilers are good for constant use or if you forget.

Yeah  I read  on another forum same advice^ 

 

So using  an  oil trap would stop both the  oil and water from compressor, then could add oil with an inline oiler or as you say  manaully? ?

 

So won't the oil from compressor lubricate anyway unless using the oil trap....
