Proper storage is so unbelievably important - if you follow all of the above advice but store your glue incorrectly, you might as well just be keeping it in a bowl of water for how effective it’s going to stay!

Glue should always be kept:

·Upright

·Somewhere cool and dry

·Away from sources of heat

·Away from direct sunlight

For even better results, keep your glue in either

·An airtight foil packet

·An airtight container

Whilst we're here, it's worth mentioning that you should never, ever keep opened glue in the fridge! Refrigerators are so humid - have you ever gotten a bottle of water out of the fridge? Almost immediately the change from fridge temperature to room temperature causes condensation to build inside and outside the bottle - the same will happen with your glue. What does water do to glue? It cures it - we don’t want that! A drawer or cupboard is ideal - so long as it’s not pressed up against a radiator or beside a window where the sun beats in, you’ll be fine. 

How about unopened glue in the fridge? It’s a divisive topic, some technicians swear by it - it’s not something that we recommend simply because you can't 100% guarantee that no humidity will work its way into the bottle!
