I dug up this old fossil and it's a good read for anyone getting into airbrush painting with acrylics. There are a lot of useful tips in this guide, and a recipe for making your very own thinner, which is a lot cheaper than buying the ridiculously priced acrylic thinners. This is mostly about model building acrylics, but it's good for Parma Fastkolor, Createx, Wicked Colors, etc. Have a read through and see what you think.
