Since it is going to be tough to get new product, you may, like me be stuck matching some finish with some old paint and catalyst. I have three cans of 2964 catalyst. One was unopened as of a couple days ago, one was left over from last year, and the other was left over from two years ago. All three were tightly capped.
I ran a test of the newly opened catalyst against the two year old. As near as I can tell there is no difference in the curing time or the results after. The 90 day life seems to be very conservative. I am probably helped by the fact that my workshop never goes above 75F in the summer and stays below 40F for much of the rest of the year. In any case, don't give up on that old product until you run a test.
The forum upgrade is complete. It was very uneventful. Please post issues in this thread.
Due to a high level of "bad actor" traffic on the community site Jaysen is implementing a forced verification to confirm that you are a human. This is a PITA and he hates it too. The 3.2 seconds it takes for the one time you have to do it every couple hours is much preferable to the hours we are losing to morons clogging the CPU on the servers. Jaysen is still looking to solve this a bit less intrusively and without cost to BBC. Hopefully the magic solution will appear out of thin air soon. Jaysen is already annoyed.

Re: Life of Sterling after opening can
Glad to hear that.
It may be the temperature. In our warehouse, it easily goes up to 100F and shelf life is less than 6 months.
