I have a bathroom in my barn/shop and the vent pipe had a small leak with a few drips coming down. I have used MANY tubes of Silicone Caulk, over the years, and I am aware of the "shelf life"
In the past I found that even an unopened tube will set up after so long, so I had a tube that was soft and didn't look at the date :oops:
I crawled up on the steep roof and found a small place that I suspected was the problem.
The Silicone was soft as new but had a strange consistancy and I suspected it was beginning to set up. :(
I should have stopped because this was applied over a week ago and it is still WET :?: :?:
I noticed this on a rag I used for cleaning, I looked at the tube and it expired in 2005 :!: :x
This was GE-- 100 percent Silicone Seal :!:
I just came down from cleaning off the 1/2 tube that I applied to the whole outer surface. Took over an hour :evil:
A stupid mistake that I will not make again :idea:
