Jamie, As most know Scalecoat is my paint of choice. I will NOT change until I have to. But I have had a bottle or 2 that was rock solid right from the hobby shop. That is why a lot of shops do not carry Scalecoat. Additionally, once you add thinner to the mix, Scalecoat WILL harden in a sealed bottle in about 1 month.
I don't know anything about your BB issue except you can put someone's eye out with them!
