Subject: Aquaseal once opened?
Had an opened tube of AquaSeal in the freezer for a month or six weeks
and found that maybe 1/5 of the tube had hardened. Is this typical? It
was quite a fight to get to the liquid portion. Is there any better
way to preserve an opened tube? Thanks.

I used to have that happen all the time. Now I squeeze the glue out to
the end, so that there is hardly any air inside when closed. That makes
a difference, although I still see the top layer hardened after being in
the freezer for several months.

I put mine in the freezer, and haven't seen as much hardening as you mention,
even after a year or so - maybe just the length of the screw portion of the tube
hardens.
