Use the reducer rated for the correct average temperature at the time you're spraying. Thin the paint to the correct viscosity. NAPA should have a chart of mixing ratios for paint/reducer/hardener. You can also get a viscometer to see if it's the right consistency. Use hardener at the correct rate and use a decent spray gun at correct air pressure, A few trial strokes on cardboard or a piece of sheet metal will give you an idea about spray pattern, mix, coverage and body.

As far as the stuff already painted: sand it, sand it, sand it. The final coat will only be as good as the base you're working with. Make sure there's no oil or dust on the surface.
