Recommended Storage
Store at temperatures between 15° and 40°C (60° and 105° F). Temperatures below these thresholds have the effect of an increase in viscosity, which makes the handling difficult. When heating is necessary, do not exceed 60° C (140° F). Containers should be kept closed when not in use.
