To that point I'll mention that I keep all my epoxies and superglues in
our kitchen freezer door shelf and their working life seems limitless.

It only takes a few minutes to bring them back to room temperature when
needed.

I've got some rather costly electrically conductive epoxy that's been in
there at least ten years and when I occasionally need a small amount to
bridge some unsolderable joint the stuff works as well as it did when I
first got it.
