Do not use glass jars for storageHi All,
Like all of us from time to time i use glass jars to store mixed up paint etc ....... i was doing the same with my PVA mix for balllast the top gets gunged up with the solution & next time you need it the top is hard if not impossible to remove save a trip to your local A&E dept and store it in plastic milk containers if the top is gunged on them at least it will give rather than glass breaking on you resulting in a nasty injury.

Have you just got back from there Nick?
Isn't it strange that the things you want to stick together come apart just by looking at them and the things you don't want to stick act as if they've been welded together.

I store glass jars upside down. This way, the paint (or other fluid in the glass) seals the lid and thus avoids air getting into the glass. Before closing the glass - after using it - is wipe the rim with a paper towel and keep it it clean so nothing can gunge up.
