I think that a two-stage air compressors is way better than a single-stage. When I had a single stage my air didn't have adequate pressure to clean radiators, it did everything else fine but when it came to radiators it fell short. 3hp 2stage should do you just fine.

 

I haven't heard or know about this 1 or 2 stage air compressors. What's the difference between these 2 compressors?.. I have air compressor but I don't have any idea if its a 1-stage or 2-stage compressor.

Anything bigger than 3hp will likely be 3 phase most hydrovanes will be 3 ph. I bought a 3 hp sip machine 100 litre tank 10 years ago struggles a bit now as its worn. it will cope with a 3/4 nut gun you just have to wait a minute or so if you have to fight something tough.
