hardener doesn't have a really long shelf life after it's been opened.&nbsp;
Depending on how you store it (cool storage areas are better), it seems that it
can degrade in as little as a month after opening.&nbsp; It still works, but
the gloss seems a bit diminished and the surface hardness takes longer to
develop.&nbsp; That's what I've seen at least.&nbsp; It would be interesting to
see if anyone has found a way to make it last longer, for example would real
cold storage work?</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";
