So turns out after visiting the hobby shop and telling what happened, he actually told me they don't sell Tamiya lacquers, he showed me this by saying I did not buy a PS spray, but a TS. He showed me that the TS paints are acrylics, and also showed me that the paint I had gotten in the polycaps caused a bit of stick since they weren't fully dried out, and when I tried to remove the parts, the thin sections just broke. He gave me a free package of blue tack so I can cover up the polycaps and pegs.
