cadman Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 George, I have about let's see, well over 800 lbs of powder at home. I figure I would stock up in case I get really busy:lolhuh:. Actually I do have well over 800 pounds of powder paint in varoius colors and manufacturers. I have never had a problem with any powder paint getting old. This is my suggetion on storing powder paint. Keep your powder in a tightly sealed container. If you buy bulk, take out only a little at a time and put that in a tightly sealed container. The rest of your bulk powder should be kept in a dark, cool area. Manufacturers specs, say that shelf life on a 70 lb carton of powder paint is 3 years. I've had powder over 10 years with no problems. So stock up and join the powder paint frenzy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Yep I have powder paint at least 10 years old. It packs from disuse but still fluffs up and paints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
