7 year old meguiar scratch x
Well im not gonna use it but not sure if these types of products have expiration? Even if it didn't, I wouldn't use it. Just opened it and still seems like same material (nothing rotting etc or smell)

I reckon you’re going to toss it; but, given
its current condition: I believe that you can
still use it...with confidence!

I have a really old tube of it also. On occasion, I still use it without ill effects.

I have 7 year old M105 and M205. Still working well. I have had products going bad over the years, but usually they just separate in the bottle. If you shake it well, I am confident it will still work.

Car Wax History
The first generation of ScratchX was for use by hand only. When you tried to use it with a Porter Cable polisher the heat created by the rotating/oscillating pad against the paint made the product very gummy and difficult to wipe off. At this time there was no such thing as the Groot's, RUPES or other orbital polishers. I don't think the FLEX 3401 had been introduced yet either.

I would have no problem using it after checking it like you did.

I had some that separated and wouldn’t come back. No matter how much shaking it poured like water with a few chunks in it. I tossed that.

Yes same here. It poured water out and I was like ok time throw it out.. Then mayo chunks came out. What's up with water not on these tubes but tubes in general with stuff inside over the years?

Letting products freeze over the winter will also degrade/ruin them in short order.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
