know how loud this 85db compressor sounds compared to the old one that
I'm
giving to a friend.

What did you use on the old one?

Nothing. Didn't occur to me when I bought it some ten years ago. And yes,
there was a small, discernable hiss right at the point of air exiting
whatever male adapter I had inserted. Also, all the adapters appeared to
be
some type of silver coloured alloy. This time they're all copper as
recommended.



FWIW, the compressor manufacturers say teflon tape. IIRC, Cambell Hausefeld
includes a roll.
