I could have sworn I read a forum about this, but I can`t seem to find it. Been searching for a while.... I used the Miyabi just over a month ago and still have a little more than a 1/4 bottle left and not sure what to do with it. I know Esoteric says to use an opened bottle within a month. Is this true? Its been kept in AC inside its black bag and in a tool case. Do I need to use it ASAP or can I wait another month or so to use the rest of the bottle? I put 2 coats on my C5, so I don`t think putting another coat would be the best idea.

Thanks

I *think* I used some Miyabi in Spring of 2017 that I had opened and used about 1/2 of in October 2016. I kinda recall cuz I did the first part of the car with the older stuff and it was going a bit more difficult than when I switched to the new to continue. Don`t remember anything immediately that was apparent when car was done but traded it a month later so no idea of the long term issues, if any. I`d guess up to 3 months is OK but I`m just wingin` this stuff so certainly don`t take it as gospel.
 
The Guz nailed it. If it`s still clear/liquid you should be fine.
Budget makes a good point, the longer you wait to use it, the potential for it not lasting as long could increase.

I used leftover Miyabi and ISM coat on my fiance`s wheels. I had enough for two wheels each. So I did each side of the car to monitor how it holds up. This was probably around 6+ months old when I used it.
