Shelf life of detailing products?

All, once upon a time, I owned an E36 M3. One day during that time, I picked up a porter cable detailing thing and many detailing supplies. I only detailed that car once before I sold it. That detail took 8 hours or so.

After selling it, I got into a 4runner lease. Needless to say, I found it tough to muster up the enthusiasm and energy to do another lengthy detail on a vehicle that I was 'renting' and that I was hardly passionate about.

My question is this... is the klasse AIO and sealant good after sitting for 4 years? I was always stored in a somewhat temperature controlled basement.

All of the other stuff didn't require me to plug in the porter cable to apply it, so it all ultimately found it's way onto an automobile.

TIA

As long as your stored your products in the basement they should be fine. The product may have separated but all you have to do is shake it up really good and your fine.
