use by dates

depends how long youve had it and where it has been stored, for the sake of a tenner id dash it if youve had it for a while.
Agree entirely. I mixed up some multi finish, by the time I'd got it on the board it was going off. It got nowhere near the wall and I ended up chucking it then looked at the bag - best before about 2-3 months beforehand!! It's a chemical reaction in the gypsum that makes it go off, not just drying out, so the ingredients have to be "fresh"
Don't bother - just throw it and get fresh is my advice. It's not expensive on the grand scale.

I skimmed a chimney breast other week and the customer supplied the bag of multi finish.
I got it on the wall ok. Thought it was a little harder that usual but thought nothing of it.
Wasnt till i looked at the bag that i noticed it was 3 YEARS out of date.. I kid you not. She said " the kitchen fitter left it for me when he fitted the kitchen to patch a few holes, but i never got round to it
hehe....
