Bright white paint for shutters to use in Fuji MM5?

As [member=4105]tjbnwi[/member]  said earlier and in other threads, can you look into heating the primer/paint as a method to adjust the viscosity instead of thinning it?

I know his setup is better suited to this compared to yours, but if you can do this, by pre-heating the can and maybe boosting the shop temp while you spray, you will get better results compared to thinning and altering the chemistry as much.

The SW Wall and Wood measured 2min 5sec no thinning. 10% thinning with water brought it down to 58sec. I think I may go a bit further to 15% and try to get it around 30-40sec for the 1.5mm air cap set and a dash of floetrol to help it spread and do the parts laying flat. Sound good?

If you can, use a wider tip so you don't need to thin as much.  As a casual hobbyist, I can't speak to the pro and semi-pro finishes out there.  As for the "regular" latex paints that are easily available at the big box stores, I have had success using 8 parts latex enamel : 1 part water : 1 part latex extender, and a 2.2 mm tip.  You could probably get away with a 1.8 mm, but I would think 1.5 mm is too narrow for latex paint.
