According to Bob Andersen of Bandersentv on You Tube, you need to mix it well first as the solids have a tendency to fall to the bottom, then you need to thin it with mineral spirits too to get it to the right consistency. He has a video using it here:

I don't have any experience with this stuff at all, the last stuff I used was thinned out water based Elmers wood filler, not technically grain filler but if anything if filled too well because it was too thick. In my opinion you should use sanding sealer first, that was what I did, but some may have other opinions.
