Can you freeze chipping glue?

Post by Kelly Thorson »

I ended up with a lot of glue left over from a project. Is it possible to freeze hydrated chipping glue or will it destroy it's chipping properties?
I know I can spread it out and let it dry, but wondered if this would be an alternative.
I believe there is no shame in failure. Rather, the shame lies in the loss of all the things that might have been, but for the fear of failure.

A few times in the past, I have placed leftover chipping glue in the Freezer with no problems after thawing out. I think Rick Glawson recommended that to me a while back.

I have never heard of anything going wrong doing that, but there might be someone out there with a completely different result.

Hope this helps.
