Almost, and that part overlaps.
I pointed to a refillable liquid sprayer. (we were talking about spraying 
paint)
He's asking about a refillable air duster. (as opposed to the disposable 
"Dust-Off" from Fry's, etc.)

Long ago, I used a small air tank under the bench (a portable tire 
refiller), with a hose and a nozzle.
Similar to:

but with a standard air tool coupler, instead of an inflator output.
Some people, for a "tire bottle", used a scuba tank, with a primary, but 
not secondary regulator.  Now, a bottle of nitrogen is often used.


For spraying tiny amounts of paint, is it possible to do an acceptable 
job?    with:
