Hello All,

Living in Fresno, CA, I've hardly turned anything or even stepped into my garage over the summer, due to the miserable heat (you guys from AZ and NV are probably calling me a sissy about now, but that's ok :)). I'm starting to make my way back into my shop, though realized that my glues have been in there baking in my garage oven for a few months. This would be Thin and medium Cyanoacrolate, and epoxy. I glue tubes with the epoxy and use the Cyanoacrolates mainly for finishes. Does anyone know if the effectiveness or other properties of the glues may be compromised due to the higher temperatures? I'm not sure how to tell if it's still good, or if I should scrap it and buy new stuff.

Thanks in advance for your comments...

Having just left there in Feb...I feel your pain!! Keep them in the fridge and they should be fine for storage. Years of pen making in Fresburg never had a bad effect on a finish for me.
