[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by cacole</i> <br /><br />Refrigeration and freezing are things I have never heard before about CA, and will try that. I have always stored it in an airtight glass jar stuffed with those little dessicant packages that come in some electronics items. I have seen those little dessicant packages for sale locally, but don't remember if it was Wal-mart or K-mart that had them. <br /> <br />[/quote] <br />Refrigeration and freezing both work to dehydrate whatever is being chilled. That's why a steak will be freezer-burned after a few months [}:)] or if you freeze bread, why it forms frost around the bread. <br /> <br />I was reading in one of the MR questions and answers columns for January (I think), and found that CA is actually helped along by moisture. That's why it doesn't work too well on styrene, but seems to work just fine on your fingers...
