- Storage and Handling
GP 2056 epoxy hardener is shipped in boxes and is non-heat-reactive. It should be stored and used in areas with good ventilation and stored in a cool, dry place at temperatures below 20-25°C. Storage in sunlight, high temperatures and/or humidity can cause cold flow and lumping. Storage life under the recommended conditions is 12 months. Proper protective equipment should be used whenever the resin is handled.
