Default help. Compressor issues!

i got a tc-60 air compressor for tcp about 3 months ago. It has been working fine, it would hold a steady continuous pressure of 20 psi.

well the other day the compressor started losing presure. I was going around 15 psi then by the end of the day would get less then 5 psi. It's not the gun or the hose i have rulled that out. it's the compressor. Is there a gasket or seal leaking inside the compressor somewhere? This is one of those small nail art salon air compressors. Should i take the cover off and go peaking? Anyone have this happen and know how to fix it?

I will send it back as it's under warranty, but i wanted to ask some of you because i am sure this has happend to some of you before.

help me please.

I'd say you're best bet is to send it in for maintenance, as the chance of you finding a gasket/o-ring/seal replacement are slim to none at best. A compressor like that is usually not so friendly on the end user level of maintaining.
