I ran out of my current ONR and found an old bottle from 2008 hidden in my cleaning products. I didnt want to wait 7+ days to get a new bottle (ordering + shipping) since I wanted to wash my car for the weekend. Does anyone know if the product is still good or do you think it`s better off just ordering a new bottle?



I`ve also been looking at old waxes I`ve had since 2010, is there an article on the longevity of products? I have waxes, sealants that I still have plenty of.

I know some guys on here still have super old wax they use. 3 years old should be ok depending on the wax and where it was stored...



So I guess a little more info I needed i.e. what waxes, where were they stored and climate of where they were stored

That original ONR is toast. Please send it to me for disposal lol. Seriously it should be fine. I have a gallon of the same and use it without any problems.I got a deal on it quite a long time ago and it has taken me a while to use it all up.

It`s fine, I still have some from around then. Even my spray bottles that are stored in a car that is outside 24x7 seem fine. It is a very stable product.
