You don't thin?
A friend of mine who does a lot of brush painting tells me it's very important to.
I've never tried it either way, I'd much rather just spray. But that's only because the tedium of brushing always gets me to a point of "to hell with this, just slap it on and get it done" within about 5 minutes. But that's just a mental problem.
Judging by my friends results on his brushed stuff, he seems to know what he's talking about. He does absolutely beautiful work.
