Bead release VERY thick!

[Lotti]

Planning to fire up the torch for first time tomorrow and thought I would sit in front of the fire and prepare some mandrels.  Haven't used my bead release for some time and it has gone very very thick, not just in lumps but thick!  Have got an old bead in it to try to break up any lumps, but can I put a drop of water in to dilute it a bit?  Thanks folks.

Yep Just add a little at a time until it's the consistency you're used to working with. I water mine down almost every time I use it

Edited to add : I've not been making beads too regularly lately, lol

pop a little water in and give it a good shake!

  I read somewhere that it is a good idea to keep your tub of bead release stored upside down as it helps prevent it going too gloopy, but I can't see why that might be! 

Will add a little water then, thanks folks.  Looking forward (nervously) to tomorrow and hoping I don't blow the place up!

I keep mine tied up tightly in a plastic bag, and stored upside down.  I find I don't have to add water very often at all
