Airbrushing with Apple Barrel paints? - RC Groups
WEBApr 11, 2007 · Ship first, Improve often. I've used the apple barrel pants on my planes. No real issues other than the standard diluting. I've tried doing it with both windex and water and I've really just found that using water works just as well as windex. These are really cheap paints so there is no real "solution" to how much to mix it.
Apple Barrel Acrylic Paint from Plaid Enterprises - RC Groups
WEBJan 4, 2008 · My experience with Apple Barrel paint is that is does not seem to cover as well as the Ceramcoat or ACE house paint.

P-40E from Guillows kit 501 - RC Groups
WEBDec 25, 2017 · This is illustrated by the photo on the right. ghcrash suggested that maybe there's some acetone in the Tamiya water-based acrylic. And the stuff does smell sort of like Duco cement, which is acetone-based and melts foam quickly. I'll have to go back and sniff Apple Barrel paint, because similar pitting occurred in small patches on my Hellcat.

Then I found acrylics from a local craft store: Delta Ceramcoat, Folkart, Apple Barrel, ect.. They can be sanded, dries flat, can be easily thinned, brushed on or sprayed. By far the best paint I've used.
