how long does it keep after opening the bag?
TIA
That entirely depends on local hunmidity.
I had a bag I got this summer for some odd jobs. Left outside in the old
landrover.
The outside and top had caked, but inside it was still powdery. It set
Ok when I had to put in two half bricks to tidy up some decorative
brickwork.
If you seal it against moisture,. it lasts forever. If it gets rained
on, its a solid lump the next day ;-)
If its still powdery, its OK.
Hah! yes sorry forgot to mention the bag has been kept inside with a
relatively good warmish condition.
Just checked, it has gone a bit hard on top.- Hide quoted text -
From my experience if it's still powdery (like new cement) then it
works fine. ..but I maybe wouldnt' use it on something critical if
it's a mix of powder and clumps.
