Can I take oil paints onto a plane?

Read the list in context, it says "flammable liquids" and it lists paints under it. But if a paint is not flammable it doesn't belong there. Flammable liquids are the things that are regulated. You can see this in the more detailed CAA list. You can see it separates artist, flammable and water-based paints.
Artist watercolours and tubes of oil paints may be carried.
Thinners or turpentine substitute must not be carried.
Gloss paints are often flammable and must not be carried. Aerosol paints are also forbidden.
Most paint manufacturers place information on the tins to indicate whether the product is flammable, toxic or corrosive.
If in doubt, contact the manufacturer.
Note the CAA is not making its own rules, everyone uses the IATA DGR, they must, it's just a matter of explaining the completely incomprehensible DGR language to laypeople.
Having a declaration from the manufacturer stating it's not flammable is great. Example although this one is watercolor paints. Here is the Frankfurt airport regulation "Flammable liquids and fluids that interact with water (such as paints, varnishes, coatings and thinners)" but again that's an explanatory of "Flammable liquid". If your paints are not flammable, you are good.
The linked article is about American regulations, you can clearly see it matches the language of https://www.faa.gov/hazmat/packsafe/more_info/?hazmat=19
