Melting Tube Jigs

I'm looking for some ways to keep my soft plastic lures from melting. I saw one post that suggested garlic pam.
Should I just wrap each one in celophane or is the a good way to keep them in good shape?

Thanks

Hey Fin ,
My friend Ken a tackle retailer showed me his trick. He mixes a few drops of canola oil in about 1000 tubes or curlies and mixes them up before he packages them. I still have some packs from a couple of years ago that are still fresh. A little messy but it works.

I put Cod liver oil in with my plastics. Keeps them shiney and soft.
