Hi All,

How long does Opti-Coat last in the container after it has been opened and resealed?

I am planning to do a vehicle before it goes into storage for the winter and save the rest for my daily driver when spring comes.

Thanks!
 
You will be fine as long as you keep the product stored in a temperature/humidity controlled environment.

As with any coating, sealant, or wax - it is best to keep them stored indoors if you are in an area where the climate changes drastically throughout the year or if you live in a particularly hot/humid area.
 
Thanks - wow that was lightning fast.

I live in Toronto, Canada is keeping it indoor is ideal.

Thanks for the input - I sent Optimum an email too lets see what they have to say.
 
You will be fine.

Thanks for the replies - going to make my purchase this weekend.
 
Just got a reply from Opti coat and they mentioned it should be fine for storage for a 2-3 months as long as it is kept at a cool dry place ( but not the fridge)

I seem to remember Chris from Optimum saying OC was good as long as it was liquid.
 
Hm it could be that they are responding to emails with caution.

Better to be conservative in the company's perspective

See post #5 ~ question # 10 of CEE DOG's interview with the good Doctor himself: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum...ew-extreme-testing-opti-coat-2-0-cquartz.html


Q& A with Dr. G of Optimum:

Dr. G, It was great having an opportunity to talk with you at Detail Fest again this year. I have a few questions I was hoping you could answer for everyone. This Q&A will be posted online in my Coatings Review and Extreme Testing article.

Corey, It was a great pleasure seeing you again also and congratulations on the well deserved award you won for your thorough forum reviews. Your questions here are a prime example of your thoroughness which is partly due to your engineering background.

I also want to thank Chris for doing a superb job of explaining how to apply Opti-Coat to make the process easier and more effective for all users...



10.-Assuming its kept indoors in 65-78 degrees what is the shelf life of Opti-Coat 2.0 before being opened by the consumer?

Opti-Coat 2.0 has an infinite shelf life as long as moisture is not introduced into the product.

11.-If only some of the syringe is used and it is properly resealed with the cap what will the remaining shelf life be? Assume its kept indoors in 65-78 degrees.

Please refer to the previous answer.
