Mix ratio for Tru-colors paint?

[twilight]

Here's some shots of my airbrushing experiments with Tru-colors paint. After a fail from shooting directly from the bottle(I did practice on scrap styrene first and thought I was getting correct results. Tried on boxcar I wanted to paint and it looked like yuck), I did some experimenting. First picture, is with a little Tru-colors thinner added(humidity was also high when I shot this)Flat and dull and flaking off:


Next shot is with more thinner added, PSI up to 35(humidity pulled out). More of what I think should be expected. This was 2 coats. More glossy as it is stated it should be.


This is a shot of the black I saved(bumps are from this sheet of styrene living in my paint booth of over a year):



Last is a shot of the primer that I seemed to have also saved:



Hope to maybe prime the boxcar later today.
