are you using primer? For me, flat paints go on much better than gloss paints by brush. Are you mixing it well? Using large brush strokes, taking care not to go over spots that you have already painted over? I do agree, Tamiya's metallics brush on the best (except for XF-56 and XF-32, ick) but anything is better than brushing on X-18 (never know if you'll get a gloss or flat finish, or maybe you'll get lucky and actually get semigloss.)
