Anyone know how to keep this stuff from drying out, like what solvent you put in it after it sits a while?

The back of the tube says naptha, toluene and xylene. I think you can get naptha at paint stores.

I put 2 layers of aluminum foil on top and then snap on the platic lid. That reduces, but doesnt eliminate the evaporation. So Im looking forward to seeing the other answers you get, David!

Nitrogen, Argon, CO2. Flush the can with an inert gas. Anything but Oxygen.

Naphtha has worked for me and the foil does help.

Great idea.
Already filled w argon; then i put it in a bigger sealed jar w argon in it. Open up today after a year and was too thick to reconstitute

I do what glenn does. Works fine.
