I have also painted my figures with enamels. But when I tried to do a wash with them (after not touching that piece for more than two weeks) the paint still came off. I did a very light wash, and still it stripped some of the paint. So I was told to use Future (or another clear coat) and then do the wash. So that's what I'm doing now.
What enamels and thinner did you use? I use humbrol enamels and humbrol thinner and never had a problem. I thin both oils and humbrol for washes.

I use Testors and Model Master enamels with Testors Paint Thinner. My wash was a mixture of the Testors Paint Thinner, and a bit of the Testors enamel.
