Does this stuff go bad or not work well if old? Anyone bought it and stored it and then used it? We will not need it much during the summer.

I only use this during the school year. It stays under the bathroom sink in the summer. I've done this for two years now. Never had a problem.

If you're not going to use it anytime soon I would suggest you freeze it. It freezes well. When you need it again, just take it out and let thaw at room temperature. It will be just as good. Hope that helps!

I bought it by the case. I really don't know exactly why there is a shelf life as it is completely dry and in a vacu-sealed package. I'll be honest, I've used it way past the shelf life and it was just fine.

I didn't use mine up as quickly as I thought, and it lasted pretty well in the refrigerator. I just covered the top with plastic wrap when I put it away and it lasted close to a month before it wet bad and got a little moldy and needed thrown away! Since it's processed, it lasts pretty well.

That wasn't an issue because I had it for only a few months before I used all of it up. Keep it in a cool, dry place.

I store mine at about 80-F and have not had this problem with this brand. For other brands, I have had to place it in warm water for a while and shake it up well.

I had the same question, so I contacted the manufacturer directly. They were very helpful, and said that the product has a shelf life of approximately 1 year. We store it in the pantry, and it's just hit the one-year mark and is almost all used up, and in my opinion it's probably lost a bit of its original flavor, but it's still very good. Time order some more!

Yes, it does keep well. There is a "best by date" on the bottom of bottle. I do not refrigerate the product, and have never found it to go bad.

No, it doesn't go bad. It's mostly silver, which isn't perishable. However it is possible that after a number of years the components within separate from each other and aren't mixed properly anymore. You might be able to shake it to remix the components or they could mix back together when you squeeze it out of the tube. However this is just conjecture on my part, I don't know if the ingredients separate over time or not. I'd go ahead and use it anyways. If your PC overheats, it's easy enough to just clean it off and apply new coolant.

If you keep this product in a cool and dry location (not in your garage) it will last for years (i.e. don't let it freeze and no long term storage in hot climate- working under the assumption the bottle is capped and closed tight).. My bottle is a year old; but am familiar with both water and solvent based acrylic solution products.

I keep mine in a cool, dark place and its still good after a few months. I don't see why it wouldn't last nearly indefinitely providing it doesn't get contaminated with any foreign substances. Maybe keeping it in the fridge might help with this.

Unopened it should be good a couple years ,you can ask that question directly to the company at their website Q and A site. Be careful using other products with it if the kill things they could kill your good bacteria.

I have used mine several times and plan on many more. I dry it out between trips for storage and re-soak when needed again. Have not seen any expiration data on the packaging, so I guess it's indefinite.

I had some around 5 years old and I did notice it's quality depleted a bit. If it was kept cool and dry it might still be ok.If it comes out runny it's time to replace.

It's a smallish bottle so if you use it daily it probably will be gone before it would go bad. But you could refrigerate it if you want.

I'm sorry, I don't have the warranty info handy.. I can tell you that I've used in one summer and it had zero problems.. I hosed it, dried it and packed it up in the garage for the winter- so it should be in fine shape for a second summer. My advice is to call the company and check the warranty info via them. Sorry I can't be more informative.
