  • Silica gel has worked pretty well for me to keep a spool dry for a couple months, but I’ve never tried to dry a “wet” spool with it, so no idea. I’ve dried petg spools in the oven before, and it worked out. Can’t remember what temperature, but I’m sure that’s floating around on the internet somewhere.

    Also the silica gel only keeps stuff dry if it’s dry itself. You can also heat that in the oven or a microwave to do that.
