Thread: Powder Paint Storage

I added silica packs to my paint. IDK if it will make a difference or not. But I figured it couldn't hurt.

Surely would keep it dry

I have put all my containers inside airtight totes and in the totes I have silica packs. That’s another reason I’m now thinking I might can leave bulk powders maybe double bagged inside the totes and just use a small amount at a time in containers.

The old adage of keep your powder dry was meant for gunpowder. Still great advice for powder paints

Well by the time I've invested and bought everything I just want to make sure I protect my purchases as well as I can. Couple more bucks here or there to ensure this is money well spent. Be a shame to have hundreds in powder paint and it all be ruined because not being stored correctly.

The bag it comes in should be good for storage. A food saver could be used to heat seal the bag back shut ( not using the vacuum part)after you removed some.

Just like my glitter I store my extra powder paint in ziploc bags and then in a plastic bin.

I like to keep mine in an old gun safe with a dehumidifier on it and silicon bags in the safe. Hooks there too. Little over kill but I don't hunt anymore and gave my long guns to my son. No body wanted the safe so I repurposed it.
