Does anyone know the typical shelf life of a new in box pair of skins? At what age would you want to reglue?
I found nothing about this on the forums and the only thing online was a question posed to REI (https://www.rei.com/conversations/sn...ife/td-p/27323). The Henkel cyanoacrylates I am familiar with have a 36-48 month shelf life after the date of manufacture. A lot of the 3M PSAs I've used are 24 months. I read that some skin manufacturers are using a sort of hot melt. But even 3M 3974, a typical hot melt PSA, has a shelf life of only 24 months. Does anyone know what glues are used? I assume most are proprietary. How long do your skins maintain their original tackiness?
