Condensation in toolbox

Possibly with the temp going up and down it is sucking moisture in past the seals. When ours was in storage we some damp rid in the boxes. keeps the moisture to a minimum.

Paint the toolbox with some ceramic insulation paint (roof paint). We've had a lot of success with it in commercial settings where the same thing happens to sheet metal.

Have the same problem with our tool box and I asked the same question some time back. Suggestions came back that included putting damp rid products in the box to cutting a vent in the side to let the box breathe. I ended up fitting a vent in the rear of the box with a foam filter so no dust would enter. The filter works and the occasions where the box would get condensation has decreased, but in certain weather conditions it still gets wet inside. I have thought about fitting a small computer type fan to the vent, but now I just live with it. I do make sure I open the box when able to let the box dry out. Kevin

Chris Hi,
If lining it with say styrene foam is not practical cover it with an old tarp, best with a air gap, (a couple of block of wood under the tarp.)

here is a cheap solution, just put in your old newspaper and replace it after a week or two
or often as you can

Hi Chris
We had the same problems with our camper and we ended up lining it with high densety
