What is the Shelf Life of Zaino or just DP in general

[pingable]

I recall there was a blurb about Zaino and the *freshness* of it. What is the shelf life of Zaino.



As far as my other detailing products, 303, 1Z, Menzerna, MMM, etc.....all seem fine just short of it needing a good ole shake.



The only issues I have with aging is 1Z Glanz in which the solvents evaporated off, and also my EO glass cleaner....dunno if the bottle or it`s the liquid, but it has been stored indoors in a closed cabinet....but the bottle or the liquid is turning a bit yellow.



My bigger concern is the ZAINO product. I have plenty of Z6/Z5 and plan to order the CS.

As my detailing hobbys wane down and I don`t have time to play with my combos like Meg #81 glaze followed by #16, etc, I just need a DURABLE product that will last for me between the 2 detailing sessions I plan to do yearly.



No more wheel washing everyday after work or 2-3X car washes weekly.

I just don`t have the time with other priorities going on.



Any Zaino Zealots can chime in. I was just going to do a Polish/Seal with Zaino and my ZFX has evaporated ....which prompted this post.

From the zaino site:

A: A 70° room temperature is best for the longevity of Zaino products. Due to the optical additives used, extreme heat or cold can result in a decrease in gloss-enhancing properties.
