When I was wrenching full time as a John Deere service tech, I put a lube mister in series with the main air hose I used all the time. I did no body work and needed maximum power output from my air tools. This worked great but the air hose developed an oily coating on the outside. I had to replace the anvil on my CP749 impact wrench after a couple years of HARD use and I was amazed to find the lack of wear in the air motor area--no scratches or galling anywhere and the vanes looked brand new.

I would run the oil mister and just use a different hose when painting.
