    I've got a tub of F44 that's about 15 month old, it's been stored in dry and cold place.

    Data sheet says shelf life is 12 month. Is it definitely not usable? How to tell if it's still alright?

    I was going to use it to bond Regupol onto 10m2 concrete floor in a rental flat kitchen, sheet vinyl will be loose lay on top.

    Thanks.

    Has it frozen at any point ?
    How does it look, mouldy on top ? or watery ?

    I've used slightly over date glue that's separated and just give it a good whisk and it worked fine

    I have 10 tubs of f44 in my garage about 8 years old lol I think I'll do a little experiment :eek:

    @Neilydun, never been frozen, it’s brand new never been opened until this morning. No mould, the texture is very smooth and soft-paste like.

    Wondering if there’s a way to test it.

    It will be fine. Just give it a mix first.

    You can imagine Spacey could nearly retire with all the glues, lvt he's 'collected' along the way, no fly's on that one :D
