Your compressor should have a gauge on the regulator and you can get a cheap mini gauge to fit on the base of your gun between the airline (also available from machine mart for around £7) and you can fine tune it from there.

I've only ever used 2k thinners with hammerite when shooting through a gun and its been fine. I painted my abs block using hammerite, pics are on my resto thread
