No need to drain the tank completely of air, just the condensation. *I
would think the same would be in order for you, especially for a 60
gal tank. *As Mike says, always drain before spraying finishes.
Otherwise, drain it often, at least weekly if you maintain the
pressure.

When I drain water, almost daily, I have a flag dangling near my tank
valve as a reminder to oil my air tools, also. *This tool maintenance
has become as routine as the tank draining has.

connections are worse than others, depending on the tool.

the nailer, I lube.
