Considering that Mr Color thinner is a lacquer thinner, it may simply be too "hot" for the Humbrol enamel and may be evaporating too fast. causing your drying problems. As suggested, try simple Mineral Spirits which is essentially the same as the standard Humbrol thinner.
Having said that, if the only way to get paint flow with your current thinner is to mix it very thin, you may wish to try that in combination with a lower air pressure to gain a little more control. It may take more coats to build the desired colour depth, but multiple thin coats is preferable to a single heavy coat.
