Paints are stored in the house and I was painting in the living room!
If you ask the other half she may mention something about paint on the table/walls/TV but those allegations were never proven...

I hadn’t thinned the paint as I was reading some threads on here and people were saying not to do so with the Faskolor paints. The white was slightly thicker than milk but only just. Before seeing these comments, I did try another coat last night with the regulator turned up to 35-40psi, and the flow rate restricted by a separate adjuster on the airbrush. That seemed better, but might have only been better because I was applying paint onto paint, not bare lexan.

I’m surprised that 10psi is the recommendation though, elsewhere I’d read more like 30/40psi and upwards. How much are you thinning the paint to be using that as a pressure?
