Storing Epoxy question
Hey Boys & Girls...............Couldn't find the answer in here, so here goes......
I have several sets of two part epoxy.......6 min.....15 min.......& 30 minute.
Is there a better way to store the extra bottles for future use other than letting them sit on the shelf until needed? Can you store them in the freezer? Should I? Shouldn't I? Stupid question?
Thanks

RE: Storing Epoxy question
An age old question! I have found that sticking them in the freezer only slightly prolongs the inevitable. It depends on the epoxy type.
The extra lifespan of the epoxy may or may not be offset by the wifes irritation of a foreign objects in the freezer.[]
I usually buy just enough for the job at hand and when the extra goes stiff, just replace it with fresh.
