+1 on Thom's comment. I do the same but do have a small fridge in my shop. I keep most of my resins, glues, stabilizers, and CAs in it. I have smaller bottles at two different stations, turning & pen assemble, in the shop. I have had a couple of the smaller bottles of lower use CA, thick, harden up and become unusable but what is in the fridge stays very consistent. One caveat on using a fridge, always let the item warm to room temp before opening, especially CA and Alumilite. Air moisture drawn into a cold bottle can condense and effect the quality of the item. I have heard of guys using a can of dry air to purge their bottles before returning them to the fridge for that reason.
