Is it normal for these products to be half-full and with dried pigments stuck to the bottle?

No, someone must have opened it or it got damaged in transit.

Can this be used on photo etch and white metal?

I don't see why not, as long as you use a good metal primer. I used it on my P.E. Schurzen on my German tanks, and it looks good.
