Storage & Regeneration:
For best performance, store this sand above 65°F to avoid dry and powdery conditions. If it loses cohesion, simply add a tiny amount of isopropyl alcohol (less than 1/2 teaspoon per 10 lb) through a bottle sprayer and mix well. Always allow alcohol to evaporate completely before use.
