Can anyone tell me the expected or recomended shelf life for the west system epoxies. 105 & 205 resins and hardeners. Thanks.
 
read the back and keep and cool temp. that should give a better shelf life. good luck.

On West Systems site they say that age does not affect the epoxy. It says that with time the hardener will darken but that it does not affect it's strength.
If you are using it for a sealer a darkened harder would be unusable though.

I used Bsi Bob Smith industries (20 mins. FINISH-CURE EPOXY), You can get from Atlas billiard supply. good luck:)
 
I have some West system that I've been using on for 5 years. Still works good as an epoxy, but turns everything yellow when used for base coat. I use the epoxy clear from atlas now for basecoating.
