Going through some stuff has me thinking about this. I have had a single bottle of Breakfree CLP that is around 10 years old. It has always sat in my SHTF gear so it hasn't been used, probably never even opened. Any idea how long this stuff lasts for? Do the chemicals start breaking down or anything? Are all gun solvents/oils a long shelf life or should I try to use this stuff soon? I know different kinds of grease can turn bad. Then there's good ol' cosmoline but that's more a storage thing (but the stuff warms my heart because it normally means a new old gun to me!).
