WD40 corrodes, thats why it gets rid of rust. Of coure by eating the rust it also has a tendancy to eat your lube, and your components, and frame...

Actually, you can go to WalMart and find a Campbell-Hausfield compressor with a 2-gallon tank for $99 and they work great. I originally bought it for my airbrush setup, but I find myself using it for all sorts of stuff.
