The thinner, if used too much, could affect the finish of the paint sprayed on the car - maybe looking matt rather than gloss. It is best to follow the paint manufacturer's instructions - especially if the car you are spraying is for a customer, not yours!

Paint thinner cannot permanently damage the paint but it may remove the wax. It can be used to remove bug splats and tar. Lacquer thinner will remove the paint and the primer.
