Hey Gang,

Does CA go bad after a being opened? If so what is the
"shelf life"

i dont know that much about ca glue, but i have a bottle thats a year old that i just used last night and it is still strong as all hell.. so id say just from that that it lasts quite a while.

Yes. I have had bottles go bad in about 4-6 months, in San Francisco where the
humidity is high. And I have seen unopened bottles go bad as well, though
after a a year or more.

Buy what you think you are going to use, and keep the top on tightly when you
are not using it. You can store factory sealed bottles in your refrigerator to
extend their shelf life before opening.
