What is the shelf life of two part urethane foam? I was told it last's only six months.

on how much is in the containers, humidity, etc. test a little to see if it still works. It's the only way to tell if it is still good.

..and I just used it the other day to make a base for a LS cougar. Worked fine, though I keep it tightly sealed when not in use, and it is stored in my basement. We have low humidity out here, perhaps that has contributed to the long life. Seems I use it about every six months or so, and haven't had any problems yet, except no matter how careful I am with it, I always seem to get it on my hands, gloves or not!
