Wow, that’s great specimen of British climate! 😉

The moist trap can do only that much, my airbrush used to occasionally spit before I drained the tank, and that was super annoying especially when painting details or final highlights.

 

As for the safety of the tank I have no idea, but I guess, as most airbrushers, you use no more than 1/3 of the pressure the tank is designed to hold, so I wouldn’t be too concerned. Also I don’t think rust can do structural damage to those tanks.
