I've shot a ton of 2150 and I believe I have it pretty well down (no conceipt intended). I use the Case IH reducer, never straight mineral spirits. I thin at the recommended (on the paint can) max of 8-1 and shoot at around 43-45 psi with a Devilbiss JGA cup gun. No hardener. I keep a pile of sheet metal scraps to test the flow. I've shot at temperatres down to 55 degrees with no difference in results. I would try a better reducer and use more of it. If my math is right which is a toss up since I went to public schools, 8-1 is around 11% of the total volume. Orange peel from my experience means too heavy of a paint film or not enough reducer. I play with the pressure at the gun and this stuff flows like glass. I slap a little car wax on it and have had "experts" at shows ask me more than once what brand of clear coat I use.
