Re: Need help, Have to store my modeling materials
I stored stuff in my garage for 6 months including through the summer. it gets 115+ here.
I work with resin every day. it is polyester containing styrene, almost identical to what models are made from and even closer to resin transkits. This type of resin can shrink over time especially in extreme heat. It will also absorb moisture and yellow with UV exposure. This includes normal model kits.
If you store your resin, or any kits, I would do it in an airtight container that wont be affected by heat. Just for good measure, wrap the container with black duct tape.
I would donate or sell your paints if you dont know how long it will be. mine lasted 6 months in the garage just fine.
