The powder can cake up inside and not allow it to come out when needed.
Especially the longer it sits in one position.
Which you hope will be forever.

A simple way around this is to mount them sideways. When you take it off the wall to use it you'll automatically dump the powder back to the bottom. It's a common recommendation for boats since all of the wave bashing can really pack the powder into the bottom.
Of course, shaking them up from time-to-time never hurts.

After 2 minutes i figure something was up and when i took my helmet off sure enough i was on fire, 6 inches was burned off my pant leg and my shoe was melted and burned. I think the only thing that kept me from being burned was the fact that i was wearing tube socks and that they were soaking wet with sweat. |
Yikes!!! Might be time for some welding leathers!
