I believe the issue is maintaining the viscosity of
the paste medium in order to keep the solder particles
uniformly suspended. Reducing the viscosity to the
point of having a pourable paste may compromise the
suspension uniformity. I'd check with the vendor of
the particular paste to be used as they can offer
exact guidance.
