Motorspray thinners is great with Motorspray paint, but CR#p with most high quality paints. DON"T mix brands, that will lead to all kinds of grief. Strain the paint as it goes into the pot. If you have a gravity feed gun, you can install a filter into the gun. If she is a suction feed gun, the biggest problem, is the air vent arrangement at the top of the pot, that has to be totally clean. Some painters use a long length of vacuum hose straight off the nipple on the top of the pot. Strip clean your gun after each layer of paint ie. after primer, after colour and after clearcoat. After cleaning put 50cc of thinners in the pot, and while spraying, hold a cloth over the various holes in the spray cap. You will know its clean when you get a really nice even pattern of spray, this is also a good time to adjust the fan pattern, saves wasting good paint later on. And don't spray on humid days, you will end up with a blotchy paint job, with areas of dull and glossy paint! regards Chuck. [Report message to a moderator]
