Yeah, you need to add some thinner!!
When spraying laquers, forget about milk. Think water. When spraying laquers, I almost always use more thinner than paint. 1 to 1.5 paint to thinner is a good guess, but it of course varies with each application.
"Thinned for airbrushing" almost always means "this paint is thin enough that it can be pushed through and airbrush". It
does not mean "this paint is perfectly thinned for optimum airbrushing performance".
For learning how to spray auto laquers, I couldn't steer you better than to Leon's tutorials on his site. Read them all, it will help. Nearly all of the info there will apply to any type of auto laquer you're using- and alot of it goes for hobby paints, too.
