Gyeon Trim Question

[virusn3t]

Hi everyone, i dont know if this is the right place for the question; Sorry if im mistaken....

Ok, i recently adquire and use some of the Gyeon Trim, and only use about 1/3 of the bottle (not too many trim on the car, but i waste a lot on the front grill)... but now with 2/3, maybe a little less, how many time do i got to use the remaining product? a few week or few months, before something chemical happen and the product get unusable?

Thanks for your help!

I've been ok with it for about a month, keep it out of the sunlight and at room temperature.

I think these coatings last longer than expected when opened, but I doubt a manufacturer can say such a thing for purposes of warranty and perhaps legality. Not too long ago, I found a bottle of DLUX that I had opened, used about 1/2 of it and forgot about it for over 1 year. Recently used it to coat the "frunk" liner of my car, and it definitely deepened the look and did improve the overall beading -- not that this area frequently gets wet. In terms of how long it will last - I don't know. But it looks pretty good -- certainly as good as any conventional temporary trim dressing!

How should I care for the BOTTLE of trim after im done,The plastic piece that comes in the bottle and the dropper?They are both all crystalized.

I would wipe away -- carefully -- any crystallized deposits. Close off the bottle and keep it in the original zip-lock bag. I keep all my coatings in their original bags in doors out of any light -- artificial or natural. You can get a dropper at any basic supply store or recycle one from a children's tylenol bottle when you need to use it in the future.

I have to think, perhaps erroneously, that this is what has helped prolong the shelf life of my opened bottles.

Almost all products cure by air contact.

Some are sensitive to light and heat (that's why black bottles).

So the way to store them is keep indoors, tape the lid shut ( not over tighten) and keep in dark cool place.

Myself I store in small cooler bags (labelled work great).

In 4 + years never had a problem.

I ordered some Trim the other day and it is supposed to be here tomorrow. I am going to be putting it on my brand new Civic's trim and will post pictures.

Is there a certain amount of time that I need to let it cure without driving my car?

For long term storage of any "liquid" products-- Whenever possible, I take off the lid/cover, place a small piece of a plastic bag over the opening, and screw the top back on. It's just a little extra protection against excess "ventilation".
