Q
Hi, I'm organising a Stores rearrangement project in the UK. Do your polishing films require specific storage conditions i.e. temperature, should they be stored in the dark, humidity etc?
A
Standard ambient environmental conditions are fine. Also, no need to storage in darkness, it is suggested to avoid direct sunlight to prevent product fading.
