HMMM,
I've no idea about thinner base paint. Some brands you can spray
directly from the bottle, some have to thin with thinner.
The easy way for you to do is try it, add a little thinner at a time
until you're OK with how it comes out.
Take your time.
LUCK

I don't know what are brush and psi your spraying at but a good basis it to get it to the thickness of whole milk. Are you painting a model or hard plastic body? I testors does not work well on Lexan. If its Testors model paint you can thin it with regular paint thinner. If its a Laquer based paint, use the specific thinner for that brand of paint. If water based, i use isopropyl alcohol.
