About 3 years ago (give or take?), I purchased, first, some Hampshire Sheen, then Yorkshire grit from The Walnut Log. I liked both products. Somehow, I got away from using them since about then. Recently, I took them out to use on some lidded boxes I was making. The Yorkshire grit was just fine, but both tins of Hampshire Sheen were dry, crumbly, and unusable. I sent two messages to the Walnut Log but, for some reason, the guy has chosen not to get back to me. I don't know what his problem is, since I was completely cordial and just asking for advice. Does anybody know how to reconstitute them? Thanks, Russ
 
The fix is to add some mineral spirits and take a screwdriver and chop/mash the heck out of the clump (turn it to a paste consistency)...put the lid back on...and then let is set for a day or so before using it.
