In the 70's in Seattle there was a religious cult that got busted when one
of the members died. No law against that but then they stuffed her in a
closet and prayed like there was no tomorrow for her to come back. After
a month the neighbors started complaining. Turns out that part of their
'prayer ritual' was huffing vast quantities of toluene.
Toluene - 'Closer my God to thee'
Mixed xylenes are no better (if not worse?) for you.

Since I use plasti-dip only occasionally and for small jobs, it is nice to have a can of it ready to go. As suggested above I always put a couple layers of aluminum foil over the opening and under the plastic cap. Then I put the can in the deep freeze. When I want to use it, I have to let it thaw out for an hour, but the same can has stayed usable for many years. I do the same with a big tube of aquaseal, to keep it from hardening. It has not hardened yet after several years of storage and occasional use.

I have only one use for Plasti-Dip: I paint it onto the foam padding in my whitewater kayak cockpit (seat and hip pads).

What's the purpose of doing this?
Saves wear and tear on biners, friendlier to webbing.
