Glad your prob. has gone....
a long Storage could have done some of that as well !!! and the compressor needed to cycle thru again.... The Cyclone II is a great little compressor.... and at times.... that Auto Start and Shut off can be a pain... Especially if you have a "small leak" in your system....
if you can't find a regulator with Moisture trap... don't sweat it !!! a small Regulator will do just fine !!!
but depending where you are located....??? a moisture trap might save you some headaches....
No one whats a paint job ruined because the AB is spitting water halfway thru a paint session !!!
Iwata makes a great "in line" one ! I have converted some of my guns to that.... with great success ! and the "added grip" makes Holding the gun a lot easier for me !!!

of course.... an Adapter might be required for your Crescendo. a great AB I might add !!!
I have the Medium and Fine tip Combo and it is still a great tool in my collection.
if not the Iwata .... a Badger Hose w/Clear moisture trap is also a great investment...
