Glass staining in storage

During glass storage, particular conditions may provoke staining. It is therefore important to know how and where to store glass.

When water enters between panes of glass, it remains blocked and cannot drain away. As the water starts to evaporate slowly, it forms a concentrated alkaline solution, which causes staining. Water vapour condensation poses the same danger. It is therefore important that glass is stored indoors in a dry, ventilated location, protected from rain and running water, and protected from wide variations in temperature or humidity.
