I have had the same problem with scalecoat. Once you add thinner, it has a very
short shelf life.

I have experienced Scalecoat setting up in the bottle after mixing with
thinner. A few years ago I painted some How Ordinary scale GP units in the T&P
Swamp Holly Orange and Black for a local hobby dealer. After mixing the color
I added thinner before spraying. About 10 days later after assembling the
locomotives I needed to do some slight touchup with the red sable. When I
opened the bottle the paint was gelled. It seemed as though the thinner was a
catalyst that had cured the paint. At the time I did not investigate more
thoroughly.
