Hello everyone, I am curious if you label your solder paste jars with additional label. We want to use our own label showing when the paste was opened and how many hours it was exposed. Any thoughts will be appreciated. Thank you!

Yes, it can evaporate. My point was manufacturers suggest cool storage to avoid seperation. I guess if the flux does seperate and get pushed to the top it could have a greater chance to evaporate. I have only seen such seperation on year + old jar

I'm hoping to hear what others are doing regarding "recycling" paste. By recycling paste, I'm referring to an operator taking the paste left over on a stencil after a work order is done and putting it either back into the jar it came from originall
