IME, a new can doesn't need thinning. I had the can at room temperature. Three coats of primer, three coats of color, waiting a week before sanding after each coat. The waiting at least a week between coats is key. It held up really well for two years of commuting. The picture with the Bontrager bar tape was from my for sale pics. I miss that bike. At the time, my wife was still counting bikes
