Vittoria Pit Stop Tire Sealant

I have some of this Vittoria Pit Stop Sealant for carrying when I'm running my tubulars, which is rare. I have had this stuff for over two years now. Does anyone know if or think that this stuff can expire. I'm worried about the sealant drying up in there and not sealing when I need it. Hate to spend $30 for two new cans if there's nothing wrong with what I have.

Thanks for the reminder, industry_hack. I did call Competitive yesterday. He told me that unused it is good for several years. He said that once you use it, however, you have to keep putting it in your tire every couple of months, as the sealant will dry up and the puncture will reopen.
