Eric, I clean the gun in the sink next to bench w/water after each color. Warm water does the trick. I try to spray light colors before darker , if possible. With a Iwata neo gravity gun, spraying into the cup directly w/the simple green mix flushes the gun then a flush with warm water.since using this gun, no issues w/Createx. craft paints is another issue. Some get lumpy and clog. Strain those first will be one way to keep from clogging. I mix the craft paint 50/50 and add a few drops of Windex. Sometime, somedays, nothing you do goes right. I basically use Createx for 95% of the paint. FYI I also shoot higher air pressures 35-50lb w/craft paints. Olive is one color I use craft paint a lot and a metallic silver for more silver color. Createx pearl silver is almost as light as pearl white.
