That is basically what the green goo is. All the fibers and particles are suspended within the liquid, and over time the liquid portion will slowly evaporate changing the viscosity of the product and its ability to deliver the sealing agents to the puncture. After two years there really isn't too much of a change in the quality of the sealant. However, if the user notices the product is not sealing as effectively, we recommend simply adding additional product to the tube or tire. Hopefully this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have further questions.

Is it an engineering safety margin? If so what is the factor 50%, 80%? In other words what is the reason(s) for the product to last two years? What test protocols were invoked in deriving the life expectancy? Did failure occur at two years?
