This last bottle had chunks of congealed top coat

I have been buying this product for probably about 3 years and love how it extends my mani. I know what texture/thickness it should have. It has always been slightly thicker than the shellac polish, but not approaching a solid consistency. This time (first use), after shaking the bottle for about a minute, it had solidified pieces of the top coat. I had to wipe it off the brush, but it had solidified around the stem and brush - so the brush is very stiff. I had been painting a plastic sample nail & this top coat produced globs instead of smooth liquid. This is a bottle I just received earlier this month, not one that has been sitting forever and and it was tightly closed when I got it. When I opened it the first time, it was difficult to open and there was no top coat material on top of the bottle or in the grooves where the top screws in, so I do not believe it had been used or left open in manufacturing. I was able to finish my mani only because I still had a little left in the old bottle (which was a couple of years old, but not congealed or hardened like the new bottle). I've tried to show how stiff the brush is. It is not soft and pliable like normal. It feels like someone left latex paint on a paint brush and let it dry. I also couldn't get all of the congealed top coat off the stem. I will be contacting sleek nail about this.
