Methods include, providing a liquid composition having a first viscosity
that includes a polymeric thickener, a non-aqueous solvent, and water. The non-aqueous
solvent and water may form a theta solvent. A solvent with a second viscosity is
provided. A portion of the liquid composition is diluted with the solvent forming
a use solution with a third predetermined viscosity; where the third predetermined
viscosity is greater than the second viscosity.
