It shouldn&apos;t be a thick paint, it&apos;s a flowy acrylic paint. But if in doubt the very best thing to do is give it a really really REALLY good shake!! Take the lid off and give it a stir with a stick or a end of a paintbrush perhaps. Ordinarily, the first couple of squirts that come out of a Black 3.0 bottle do tend to be a bit more watery than the rest of the paint because sometimes if it&apos;s been sat for awhile a little layer of water will appear on the top but once you&apos;ve shaken it, it should be back to normal. If this doesn&apos;t work, please reach out to us and we will be glad to help!<img data-fr-image-pasted="true" src="https://uploads.gorgias.io/gpGJBxpRvy2YXZA5/undefined-fc0680f8-bce6-4ee2-9a39-5cba7d3bc355" style="width: 300px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib">
