    Default Silver Glide seperating in heat

    Hi, my Silver Glide is not coping with the heat, I don't think it gets to 40c in Germany. Will this be a problem and how do other users store theirs?

    The Silver Glide should still be OK once it cools down.

    Ive got an old fridge (motor doesnt work), I store all my finishes, glues etc in there. Works well.
    Regards

    Just stir it up and keep it inside the house not in the hot shed. I also keep all adhesives and finishes in a box in the corner of a cool room inside as garage heat will turn it bad very quickly.

    Col (right now 21 deg in the house and 43 deg in the shed)
    Good better best, never let it rest, until your good is better and your better best.

    I keep mine in the beer fridge, along with other finishes, next to the shot glasses

    Just stir it, no need for any special storage.

    Have had the same problem with waxes and glues in the heat in the past. I don't have a fridge in the shed [ I need my daily exercise walk to the house to get my beer ] but I do have a large old styrofoam esky which has been "glue washed" to form a skin over it and to slow down the bumps etc. This is where I keep my glues, waxes, silverglide etc - the silverglide tin is also captured in its own tupperware type container to avoid any creep out of the tin, especially when it gets hot - DAMHIK.

    Regards,
    Bob

    Thanks guys. I've put the Silver Glide (and glue) in the house as I don't use it all that often and I don't have the luxury of a fridge in my shed. My Silver Glide tin has a ring around it so I've got it in a box now. It's good stuff so it's worth looking after.
