Just remembered the FAQ page:
http://www.lugnet.com/~330/FAQ/Build/paint

It's funny, I was just reading that page and I found something I disagreed
with, and I thought about posting but then didn't because I figured that would
be weird, responding to a post just because I found it through the FAQ...

Anyway, in the FAQ someone suggests trying Games Workshop (ie, Citadel) paints,
because they're "made for painting plastic".  They aren't.  While Citadel
produces many plastic miniatures, Citadel paints are meant to be applied to a
primed miniature, NOT directly to the plastic.  So, unless you want to cover
the entire minifig in a coat or three of primer, I'd suggest avoiding Citadel
Paints.
