I am guessing that you need an adapter for the air hose, the quick way is to take hose and airbrush with you to a hardware store and had the store clerk help you, I buy all of my hose fitting at Lowe's or home depot

there is two ways that you can cut down on the amount of water coming from your brush, the best is to install a 50 foot air hose between the compressor and water filter , the hose can be coiled up, the length of hose give the water vapors time to cool down,filters had a harder time removing water vapors versus the water , the second idea is to alway had the hose that is attach to your airbtrush running down to the floor
