Ideally they should be used as is however i have added water in the past to old tubs or even to fresh tubs that were to dry for my liking.
They are air dry compounds and will just take longer to dry, also you may get a bit more shrinkage.

the problem may be that the top will be dry with the underneath still moist.
this will give you a streaky finish, unless you can get it ultra smooth its gone to the bin I'm sure.
