Was thinking of touching up some spots on my Gios with some Gios-Supplied paint. What would be the correct thinner to use if I went the airbrush route? Additionally, some of the chips and scratches are down to the steel. This was original primed in red, suggestions for a touch up primer? Sorry if these have been asked, I have been the best at keeping up with this thread.

Thanks.
