I've got a lot of the old GW paints in the old bolter pots ad once a year I add a couple of drops of water.

I just checked an old graveyard earth and bleached bone and they have gone lumpy.

Not hard yet, but close. How do I save them?

Thanks!

Most unlikely they can be returned to 'new' condition. Use them for base coating terrain, where a few lumps won't matter.

Airbrush thinner, agitators, assisted shaking

Or use it for terrain as suggested

You can try a bit of lahmian medium, and stirring it up really well. But those are really old paints -- so I'm with Clang, blow 'em up on some terrain, or mix it up as best you can and ca it 'classic drybruah paint'

THanks all! I'm going to try and add Lahmian medium and some distilled water and see how that plays out
