When freshly mixed, it's almost water consistency; very runny and a little bit goes a loooong way. (And whatever's left over will keep for a couple of days, esp. if covered and thrown in a 'frig. So there's no "rush" in applying it. )

It can be applied by brush, roller, spray or rag; my preference is to simply hang the keyring vertically and apply the finish with cheap, throwaway artist's brushes. Being so runny, brush marks aren't a problem..

For a really nice, glossy finish I'll repeat the process every hour 'til I've applied maybe 3 or 4 coats, then put it aside for a couple of days to let it cure thoroughly. But it's usually touch-dry after only a few hours.
