AV Gas question

I’ve had an issue with av gas and wanted to see if anyone else has had it happen.
I store my gas in plastic race cans. I had the fuel in three of the can change from blue to clear.
Poured some of the fuel in a glass container. It was cloudy and when it settled it had what looked like white
Powder in the bottom of the jar. Has anyone else had this happen and if so any idea what causes it?

Thanks
 
The White powder is lead (and your octane). I assume the gas jugs are opaque and have been sitting in the sun. AV gas jugs need to be colored so UV light won’t penetrate.

I wouldn’t recommend running that fuel.
