                        Thinning down Primer

                        Just curious, is it better to thin down primer out of an airbrush or just let it go naturally?

                        Depends.  AK & Vallejo primers don't need to be thinned.  Tamiya & Gunze primers should be thinned.

                        I use Vallejo and Badger and I don't thin.  I do spray at a higher psi though; 25 to 30.
