Not a published one anyway All film will deteriorate to some extent over the years but this depends on a large number of factors such as exposure to uv, heat, humidity, etc. All these are hard to quantify though. How old is the stock and how has it been stored?

I dont know about llumar but I found a 18" roll of JWF Auto film from back when worked in a shop in 1991 and it looked and applied like new(wanted to see if it would hold up). It was in a box of stuff I had stored in the basement.

I've found old film has more "curl" during the install, but after you squeegee it down it's just fine.

I'm currently using some 3 year old film that has gone through plenty of heat cycles in the freezing MN winter and super hot and humid summers we have.

2 Weeks. After that, it's shot. If you have any thats 2 weeks old from the date you recieved it, PM me and I'll send you some pre paid boxes so you can send it to me for disposal.

Seriously, the only thing I've seen affect film is extreme temp/humidity fluctuation. The liner gets to be a REAL bitch to peel after a while in a trunk or pick up bed!

It's a relative question..it's not how long it's been stored, but how WELL it's been stored
