HOW TO STORE GELS

Read more...

Gels should be kept below 38 C. The primary sign of overheating is when the gel has become too liquid. The gel, which has become “liquidy”, can still be saved by placing it in a cooler place. If lumps have already started to form in the gel, then the gel has already started to harden, has deteriorated and this process can no longer be stopped. The gel jar (even when closed) must not be exposed to direct sunlight. A working UV lamp on the table, plus a strong heat-emitting table lamp and, in addition, direct sunlight through the window, can noticeably bring the temperature around your work table above normal. Gels should be stored in a cool, dark place. After using the gel, make sure that the edges of the gel jar are clean of the gel. If the gel stays on the edges of the gel jar and you close the jar without cleaning, the gel may act like glue and the jar cannot be opened later.
