Check with the company you bought the paint from.
Different paint takes different thinning.
Is it Lacquer or Enamel?

Fellow Listers;
 
Does anyone have an idea on what ratio to thin automotive paint?  I recently
purchased a quart of BRG for my '78 Spit and I need to shoot some patchwork
I did in the trunk area.  Does 1:1 (vol/vol) paint/reducer work, or should I
shoot for thinner than that??  

Thanks,
Matt Milkevitch
