Pressure and CFM

Im shopping for my first air brush. What ever it is I'm confident it won't be my last. I have a shop compressor in the garage so I just need a low pressure regulator for the airbrush. As a rule of thumb, what is a good min/max for pressure and CFM for air brushes in general. Something that will cover future a range of airbrushes.

Gen 2 paint issue and solution

The paint around my windows is flaking off and has spots of rust showing through. My solution is potentially one of my best or worst ideas ever. Let's let Reddit decide.

Im thinking of simply sanding out the rust and feathering the paint to the edge of the radius, then airbrushing just the thin strip affected. This is where I might be going off the reservation. Im thinking of using Rustoleum.

Having owned a bodyshop in a previous life, I know how to "fix" this IRL but thats not realistic. I know I'll never match the color but that isn't a huge concern. If it turns out just unbearably ugly I can cover with flat of semi gloss black.

I'm 65 and hopfuly this is my last 4wd truck. I like it and would prefer it not look like Cub Scouts did the repair, but it isn't a pavement princess. I off road, frequently in some really sketchy places so stuff happens. Longevity absolutly trumps esthetics here. Please let me know your thoughts on my approach in general or on alternate paint material. Thanks in advance.

If this posts twice, my apologies. It stalled uploading the image on the first try

Remote Garage WIFI Router, Hub, or Something Else.

For context, I have an old house and half of it is lathe and plaster. The net results is im living in a Faraday cage. I also have a crappy wireless router supplied by my ISP. Rather than actualy learning something about WIFI, I just trenched to the garage, laid conduit then, pulled 80' of CAT 7 out there. It's worked fine for my laptop but I'd like to use my tablet too. Yes I could use a mesh system or extenders but ive already got the CAT 7 that is solid and Im inherently lazy andwant a stupidly simple plug and play solution. What can I use out there that wont cause a conflict with my existing router?
