Shelf Life:

3 years in tightly sealed containers. The date code of manufacture is stamped on the bottom of the container. The stability of the product is limited by the evaporation of the solvent when the container is opened. Evaporation of solvent will cause the cement to thicken and reduce its effectiveness. Adding of thinners to change viscosity is not recommended and may significantly change the properties of the cement.
