Cactus Juice question

[MikeinSC]

Over the next few months I will be stabilizing a lot of the spalted wood I have around here.

I have not had this problem yet with acrylics but have read that some people have problems with acrlylic blanks and a hot work shop .

Does cactus juice get soft after it has been cured? I will be making a few thousand blanks. I'm making room for the stuff now. I'd rather have them in the garage but have plenty of room in a two car garage sized FROG if that'd be better.

Suggestions?

I don't think that you have to worry about that, I live in a hot location and stabilized blanks never changed its hardness after being cured properly.

I would try though to keep the Cactus Juice in a cool place, particularly if the hardener has been added to it.

Blanks stay hard. +1 on storage of the juice. I keep mine in the shop frig. However if you are going to stabilize 1000's it won't sit around long enough.

The liquid stuff, I'm not worried about at all. Its the long term storage of the cured product in a hot environment. I'd rather not store the blanks in my house but if needed, I would if heat is an issue.

Once the Cactus Juice is properly cured you will not have any issues with the blanks getting "soft" or "Gummy" in warm temps.
