    Hey sometimes I refridgerate some krylon cans that are higher pressure (like glossy white) when doing details to lower the pressure. Sometimes tho it seems like the paint is not as smooth. Do you think the paint is getting to thick in the fridge?

    I know when you keep a Krylon in a heated(radiator) spot it intends to burst...

    I don't know about a fridge or anything..

    the coldness from the fridge is fucking up the pressure making you're paint thick and shitty. Same shit will happen if you got cans in you're bag in like -20º weather

    the warmer paint is the smoother it will come out of the can..refridgerateing paint would only make it thicker, and the pressure would go back to normal as soon as the can was no longer cold, which doesnt take very long.

    ...not quite.



    it makes it "thicker" yes, but it comes out in globs...and unless you could find a way to keep it cold all the time the paint would just go back to normal as soon as it reached room temperature

    ^^^^ too add to what tony said, the paint will indeed come out in "globs". it'll just be little splatters that really are'nt good for shit, little concentrated squirts that would be shitty for fills, and that much worse for outlines. Not a worth while task.

    yes, you know, the place you store food so it doesn't expire or spoil, it also a good place to keep beverages because it keeps them cold. :rolleyes:

    refrigerating it wont do a lot unless its kept refrigerated for a long time, and you shouldnt expose your cans to any to hot, they will explode
    yeah.
