I stand corrected. Well done Sir, a real work place!
I have the same compressor but ran PVC air lines around the garage with a whip hose to it. In the other garage I have a 75' reel to a Husky 175psi compressor.

Not a good idea running PVC is not rated for compressed air lines . I know a lot of people do it but if you all go to any professional shop they are all specified in with metal pipe per code . It’s really a safety issue . If they go it can turn into shrapenal.

You can buy air pressure-rated PVC, it is generally rated 300-600 PSI. Plenty for compressed air, not sure what @siberian has in his case. The only consideration would be the joints and connectors that would also need the same pressure rating, which of course if it is plain PVC it would not be safe. You would also need a reasonably controlled temperature in the work area too, certainly above freezing.

on compressed air would only trust a threaded joint in steel . I would feel better in my garage to do it right . Plastic can crack with temperature heat or abuse . The rating is one thing but how robust is it to handle abuse , impact , temperature exct . We set up maintenance facilities like the enclosed you might recognize the vehicle exhaust systems installed in West coast . Not a dealer . Vehicle Exhaust system in Carson
I got my car a mini version of him/her/it. lol Looks pretty good match, except mine is a 2021 and a 2CS instead of 4CS, and the rims are different. But that was as close as I could find for a Carrera. They even tried to match my custom license plate.

When I read this I thought the picture was your garage and in my head my first words were "holy f**k!"...
