Good afternoon everyone!
I’ve got a partial jug of Titegroup powder from an older friend of mine that has gotten somewhat damp. The powder is still good, shoots just fine, smells fine, but likes to stick to absolutely everything and clump up in the powder measure. Note, it is NOT static cling, I verified that. My question was-would it be possible to tape a small desiccant bag on the underside of the lid (well above the powder) to help remove the excess humidity from the powder itself? I’ve read previous forum threads about people physically putting the desiccant packets in the powder which I don’t think is a good idea at all, but what about above it under the lid? It won’t physically contact the powder, but it will draw moisture out of the air trapped in the 4 lb jug. Obviously I wouldn’t leave it in there long term, just a day or two to remove the extra moisture.
Any thoughts?
