The trick is to add as much thinner as you need. Using a mixing stick aluminum is my preferred mixing stick material and i really do not recommend using a wooden stick with thinner. When you mix it around and you pull the mixing stick out you have to make sure no matter how hard you try when you pull the mixing stick there must be drops only never a filament. Using thin paint is also the key to avoiding orange peel. If using an HVLP gun make sure to read the msds datasheet available for any painting product to see gun settings typically flat color (not metallic) will likely have a recommended 15 to 20 psi at gun if you have and you should have one gauge mounted on your hose you are using when the trigger is pulled the difference in pressure is what is found at the air cap usually between 5 and 10 psi and a 1.4 mm buse. Always wait your flash times between coats 10 mins for voc solvent paint a real 10 mins use a paint strainer to avoid splatters, clean our surface with solvent acetone or final wash before paint.
