Default how long can it sit...

I have Zaino that has been sitting in the garage for over a year. I dont think it froze. Does this stuff go "bad"?

Did you check the ZAINO website or contact the company?

I contacted Zaino about my usage and they stated that as long as it is not lumpy, it should be fine. He said 3 years is his rule of thumb for shelf life.

My garage is not heated but it doesn't get below 40 F in there as a practical matter. My stuff that is 2+ yr old looks fine in the bottle, I'll have to use it and see.
