What was the consistency of thge product when you applied it?

Nice & smooth or a litle stiff?

Maybe a little stiff; not seriously though.

Did it have the strong "vinegar" smell characteristic of fresh product?

Faint vinegar smell
If not it might have been too old, I'm pretty sure the unopened shelf
life is way less than 2 years.

If you have some left squirt a little out onto a piece of paper or wood
& see if it cures. If this test squirt cures your installation will
enventually cure.

Silicones are moisture cures, they get the moisture from the air. If
they are already paritally cured (old) when applied the cure process
really slows down.

If you're not in a hurry I'd give it at least a week., maybe two

I'll give it 2 weeks, but I am not optimistic. Thanks all.
cheers

Check the date on the tube. I had that happen to me with a tune bought
from Walmart with no date on the tube. Don't buy unless there is a
reasonable date in the tube!
