Minwax High-Build Polyurethane opinions wanted

Yes I have used this. I like it mostly for making my own wipe on poly. I mix it about 3 parts mineral spirits to one part poly. This stuff is thick.

The one time I sprayed with it I turned a beautiful set of Cherry coffee table and two end tables into what felt (to me) like a big hunk of plastic. I had some trouble getting it to flatten on the table tops so I ended up wet sanding with mineral spirits building up a slurry of poly and solvent. I recoated it and had to do it again. It was so thick and flat it was just like plastic when I was done.

I actually offered to rebuild the whole set for my customer but they assured me they really liked it and paid in full.

I should have followed my own rule of never "try> I was wondering if there were any opinions about this stuff:

I'm asking bacause I can't seem to find any of the regular non high build formula in the gallon sized in the stores. Is there something else similiar that I can use if I want to buy it by the gallon?
