Hey Bill,

You're not being over cautious. You're being smart buying new stuff.

There are as many opinions as there are people who can write and here is
another.=20

If it is within the shelf life date limit, use it.
If it is out of date, use it for gluing a toilet lid back together or =
some
other important function, but maybe not for airplanes.
Not meaning to be flippant, but the manufacturer should know what =
they're
talking about.=20

From the Henkel website:
Hysol EA 9360
Shelf Life
@ <40=B0F/4=B0C 1 year 		1 year  ... this is not in a closet but a
cold refrigerator.
@ <77=B0F/25=B0C 6 months 	6 months ... room temperature in the winter =
and cool
summer days
@ <90=B0F/32=B0C 6 months 	6 months ... garage temperatures in the =
summer

From the Aerocraftparts.com site
Shelf Life:
@ <40=B0F (4=B0C) 	1 year
@ <77=B0F (25=B0C) 	6 months
@ <90=B0F (32=B0C) 	6months

So they=92re saying the same thing as best I can determine.

I've used out of date hysol for a lot of things, and it works great. But =
for
the plane, I use the stuff that is still in date. Bright blue on cure.

This is an airplane ... meaning the very best work you can do, using the
very best components is only barely enough. Barely! Do it right ... you =
only
get one chance. And for $120, it's a small piece in the scheme of =
things.

<clip>

  My question is: what have others done? Given the cost of the project=20
overall I think I'll order up some new and use the old for non-critical=20
areas. Am I being overly cautious? Any opinions received will be just =
that-=20
what I do is ultimately my own decision.

  Thanks-  Bill Wade  IV-P=20
