2k shelf life

Unopened good for years if stored in a stable temperature.
Opened the Part again is good for years, primer activators once open 30-90 days.
 
Gee Barry I have used activators a lot older than that and so far have had no issues. Am I just asking for trouble or can they last much longer if sealed tightly and immediately after use?
I always look to make sure they are still clear with no solids but some are 6 months old.
 
Is it the same for epoxy? It seems like there is always something preventing me from working on my truck so sometimes there is an extended amount of time between priming sessions.

Yes, so have I and some years+ old with a test first or on something where it did not matter. But we have to be aware, the potential is there for the activator once opened to go bad in 2-3 weeks.

Rare but can happen.

NO epoxy is very stable.
