How hot is too hot again ?
« on: March 16, 2010, 02:26:53 PM »
I'm home today on one of the early hot days here in So Cal. This winter I built a lil area to store my boards. Currently, I notice that it is slightly under 110 degrees   in there. Apparently I'm going to have to do some venting in there. Today is not really that hot, so I want to ask those in the know how hot do you think is too hot for board storage ? Thanks!

All I know is that EPS can soften and start to melt somewhere around 160.  I like to think that if its much too hot for me it might be getting to be the same for my gear.  Gear seems to prefer that too.

That's a good guideline. I think then that I should be good as long as I can keep it under 120 degrees in there. Thank you!

The most scientific way is to grab a cold beer,walk into the room if the beer gets real warm before you finish it then it's to hot for Board, Man and the Beer.
