I like to use Liquin with my oils but found I waisted more of it than I used. As you may know once the bottle is opened it begins to dry out. So in order to prevent air getting to the medium I purchased some cheep empty paint tube. I had an old bottle of fine detail Liquin broke into the thick crust and filled 4 tubes. The best way to seal the tubes without a mess is to fill the tube about just over half way then seal the end with pliers. Great no more air getting to the Liquin, no more waiting for certain colours to dry out over a few days. And no more waste! 
Helps, if you use this  horrible stuff, to stir it now and then; let it set, and - it will. 
I take your point Robert, but it does the job. Thanks 
It DOES do the job - it's the whiff of it I dislike.  But of all the preparations out there, Liquin  is one of the better ones.  
I have tried liquin too. It does take 2 days to completely dry anyway.
