How much to dilute the Yes paste?

So that stuff looks pretty thick. How much do you dilute it?
Shall I just put some in another little bowl/cup, then carefully add warm water and mix till it gets to a modge podge or slightly thinner consistency?

the more water you add, the more likely you are to get wrinkly papers. i use it "full strength", that is, undiluted. but i have tried it with warm water mixed in and wasn't as pleased with the results.

i will say that that is true for the thinner magazine paper.

i wish all magazines would print on nice (thick) paper, then we wouldn't have to worry! :-)
