Gentlemen, I actually use this seperation to my advantage. BUT there is a warning here. The clear liquid that seperates is, I believe, mineral spirits used to thin the cream and is perhaps an evaporative agent.. DO NOT dip a brush into the mineral spirits and apply it to light colored leather! It will stain it. Always make sure the substance is mixed.
Now, I pour off the mineral spirits when it seperates. I find I do not need a thin cream and am just as well off without this thinner.
If I do mix it I find that some vigerous shaking of the plastic jar will turn it into a cream again.
