Default Using Latex Paint - Help

I have a Byron P-51 which is completely glass and needed final sanding and painting. I really want to use latex paint to finish this plane since I don't have a paint booth and I want to paint it this winter in the basement and don't want the fumes.

Is it best go with exterior house paint or is there another brand which is better and made specifically for models? Also, does anyone have experience with using latex in an airbrush or paint gun? I read an article about thinning the paint with windshield washer fluid. Has anyone used this technique or there a better one?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt
