Storage & Handling
- Storage and Transport
Keep cool and dry. The shelf life of bleached shellacs will be more than 12 months if stored/transported at temperatures <20 degrees C (55 degrees F). Higher temperatures will accelerate aging of the solid material and raise the risk of "blocking" especially under the influence of humidity. The solubility of this shellac should be checked periodically as a precautionary measure. Because of the reasons above, we recommend refrigerated transport.
