How to Store Gel Balls the Right Way
How to store gel balls depends on the exact beads and launcher. Use the bead packaging and product manual as the source of truth for preparation, storage, disposal and compatibility; there is no universal hydration schedule, water temperature, container or refrigeration method.
Use Only the Specified Beads
Confirm that the beads are approved for the exact launcher. Do not mix bead types, reuse damaged or questionable beads, or apply instructions written for a different brand or product. Keep beads away from young children and pets; do not ingest or insert them.
Follow the Exact Preparation and Storage Directions
Follow the bead and launcher documentation for hydration, storage and when to discard prepared beads. Do not rely on a general time, temperature or container recommendation. If the instructions are unclear, ask the manufacturer before use.
Safe Handling
Load and unload the product only as its manual directs. Clean spills promptly, keep beads out of drains and stop using any load that is contaminated, damaged or not prepared as specified.
