I've done the same for the inside of a glass-top humidor. then I close it up and let the beads/cigars spread throughout to absorb as needed. Usually doesn't take long, and since it's distilled water there is no residue left. been doing this for years with no noticable ill effects.

I do this for my coolers and Vinotemps.

I have a tube of HF beads in one of my small humidors, I just take off the cap and spray the inside, one or two spritzes is good, then I just shake the tube up a bit to spread out the moisture.
