Presuming this product has a thin consistency, does it level out as it dries, or can brush and or squidgy marks can be visible when it finally dries?

No brush marks when dry. Beautiful product.

How long it takes to dry out after application ?

I apply a thin even coat over dry oil paint and it usually dries in about 30-45 minutes.....Great product for deepening the colors without being overly shiny.

Can this product be used to seal alcohol ink or watercolors? If so, what substrates can it be used on with those mediums? Thank you.

I use it only for oil paintings. You should contact Gamlin customer support in order to get the best answer.

Can this be used to seal alcohol ink or watercolors on any substrates? If so, what substrates? Thank you.

I have used it on canon print canvas to seal a canon pro 100 ink print with apparent success. Did not make the ink bleed or change color. Seems completely transparent.
