I don't know about it going "stale" if it's tightly capped.
However, the Tower Hobbies 6 minute epoxies will thicken up
and eventually crystalize when left on the shelf. I threw
away my first batch that did that, but then learned that
a little heat will thin them right back down for another
6-12 months. I put it in the microwave oven for 10-15 SECONDS -
you don't need much heat. I put the exhaust fan on as a
precaution but I get very little fumes (much less than
while actually using the glue).

| I have a small, office-size, refrigerator in my shop used for storing
all my CYA's and epoxies. Both will go bad much quicker stored
at room temp; the warmer, the quicker it'll go bad.

| Does this mean that the CYA's bond better "quicker" in cold
temps vs warmer temps?

| No, I think you would get the quickest and best bond on warm humid
days.

P.S. Thursdays aren't bad either. ;-)
