I just bought a CH DH7800 spray gun. I intend to use it first for painting some doors. I'm wondering if my spray gun can handle normal household latex and oil paints as long as they are thinned properly. Also, how much should I thin it? Thanks!

I have no idea what a DH7800 is. If it is for automotive paint, you should buy a sprayer designed for house paint -- they don't cost that much. Yours may or may not work, but I would not even consider it. Latex is MUCH thicker than what is designed to go through an automotive gun. It will be sort of like the reverse of trying to drink a milkshake through the straw that comes with silicone spray, etc.
