How long would you keep un used latex primer or paint? I have some
Kilz and some custom mixed paint.. that's 16 months old.. Thinking of
using just enough for a "test strip" first.. after reading someone
else's problem of not drying.... But normally... how old is old?

IME if the can is well sealed latex will last far longer than 16 months.
If the paint looks OK after stirring, no lumps, not skinned over, etc. it
should be OK. If you have can that's never been opened since it was purchased
it is almost certain to be OK. as long as in the case of the custom mix,
the lid was sealed properly at the store.
Thanks guys.. now for the painting....
