Primer/thinner mixture?

Question: I need to know the CORRECT mixture of primer and thinner to spray in a spray gun. Im trying to primer a car and they said I need to mix the primer with thinner so it would spray out the gun correctly without clogging.

Answer: Your can of primer should have the ratio on the side of it. All paints, primers, brands, etc uses a diff ratio... So only way you will know is if you get the info from the company that made your primer. The high build primer surfacer that I spray mixes 2:3 ratio, meaing every 2 oz primer, add 3 oz. of thinner... My gun's cup is 20 oz so I mix up 8 oz primer with 12 oz thinner per gun cup.
