Airbrushing Tamiya white liquid surface primer

I just picked up a bottle of Tamiya white liquid surface primer and Tamiya lacquer thinner. I was going to thin it a bit with the lacquer thinner, but I’m not sure what a good ratio is.

Does anyone have any advice on the best way to airbrush this?

Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge it is not meant to airbrushed. I use Tamiya primer from the rattle can adn it works best. I use the liquid primer for seam filling, etc.

As for the ratio. “Consistency of Milk”. This is the rule of thumb for me for all type of paint when airbrushing.

I ended up using a 70/30 ratio of primer to thinner and it seemed to go well.

Thanks everyone for the replies.
