Hi all,
I just received a new shipment of PMK Pyro from Bostic & Sullivan. Unfortunately, I wasn't home when it arrived and it sat outside overnight with temps down into the mid 30's. The B solution has developed a fair amount of precipitate in the bottom. Should I be concerned about this? Is there some way I can get it to re-dissolve back into solution?

I think if you heat the B container (put it in some 90F water) and then shake it, you'll get (most of) the precipitate back into solution.

Solution B can do that even at more normal temperatures. it's basically a fully saturated solution. Warm it up, mix it up as well as you can and use it with confidence.
