My experience was based on using a Rears 50 gallon pak-tank sprayer, 3 pt hitch mount. I suppose with a smaller container that can be shaken you could stir it back into suspension, but you're not picking this rig up, even empty.

My experience was different. I used a cheap 1 gallon (1/2 gal?) tank,
and didn't come close to using up all that I'd mixed with one cover of
all my apples. I didn't want to use it on other stuff, because I have
a lot of spiders and other predators, and don't want to disrupt their
home. So I left the rest in the sprayer. I figured that clay is
pretty stable, and it would probably keep.

A couple of weeks later I used it again. I agitate by picking up the
canister and shaking hard, rotating between rightside up, upside down,
and side-to-side. In short order, I had a nice suspension again, which
I had no trouble spraying, and which dried to the same dusty white as
the first use.
