Well yes 50/50 way to thin.You would have almost thinned out the hammertone it would have almost been paint.Some hammertones you can just apply without thinners (some that is,not all). So I just do it as 75% hammertone to 25% thinner.Just so it can flow through the gun without blobling everywhere.I dont know even do primer as a 50/50 it thins that down to much as well.Try it that way next time you'll be suprised at the differents.Actully when I seen the mower painted I didn't even think you used hammertone.
