I do both PC and Lee Alox. If I like a bullet 'as cast' I will often use Alox. You do not need much of it. A very light coating will do the trick. You will need to thin it occasionally as it will dry and thicken up over time if you keep the same container for coating.
I use the aluminum roasting pans with the plastic coated (or regular) Parchment paper to keep either PC or Alox from sticking as they dry/cook and reuse the sheets I cut.
While you do not usually heat Alox coated bullets to dry them, I have heated (115 degrees) the bullets to dry them quicker if I wanted to load them the same day, but usually I will give them 24 hours to air dry after coating. I keep a clear (peanut butter) jug just for Alox coating. They may still be somewhat tacky after 24 hours drying.
It has a pretty strong odor so wear rubber gloves unless you want your hands to stink.
