    Left a bottle of wg tsr open for a few months

    Looking for product today notice the wolfgang tsr bottle cap was not completely sealed.

    Its been a few months since last usage and its been stored in the house /climate control.

    Any concerns about the polish going bad......

    Im sure im not the first nor the last to do this...appreciate thoughts on this pls

    put another top on and shake the heck out of it and then check the consistency. if it's not separated/watery and hasn't changed like when you received it then you should be okay...

    Re: Left a bottle of wg tsr open for a few months

    Depends on the air gap that was present. Water and solvents will vaporize into the air above the product in the bottle. Vapor pressure built up in the bottle will seek to escape the bottle (think beer, soda, champagne, etc) when an air gap is present. The vapor pressure of TSR is probably close to water in the bottle. If you can imagine the air gap for water in the bottle and how much would be lost during the two months you might be able to revive it with water if it is too thick and n consistency.

    Was it loosely capped or closer to uncapped?

    The flip oem cap was down but not fully seated...

    It was short that final press where you hear a click.

    I checked the bottle when i noticed it ...shook well..then removed cap and the tsr looked to have the consistnecy that you would expect

    It's probably ok. If the product was dried on the cap where it contacts it may have acted like a natural gasket and sealed the inside cavity from the outside air.
