AAE;n83794 said:The activator is activated by moisture in the air. As the liquid space is replaced with moist air, the activator will begin to degrade. There are aerosol products that are pure nitrogen that when sprayed into a can will displace the oxygen and help to prolong the product life. It should be used after each opening of the can.
Temperature cycles aggravate the issue as the air inside contracts and expands, drawing in new moist air with each cycle unless the can is 100% sealed which is difficult to achieve. The more empty the container, the greater the problem. Storing at a constant temperature helps considerably.
