I've got a Pro Seal Kit which officially expires this month... though
I've had it in the freezer for all but a few hours since I bought
it. What does bad Pro Seal look like? How does it behave?

It loses its adhesion characteristics. Wouldn't it be nice if it
changed color radically when mixed. Oh yeh, it does... I just meant a
truly different and more noticeable color. It remains paintable.

I've used Pro-Seal that was years old ..... and it didn't seem to
change. I was stored in a regular refrigerator ..... not in the freezer.

Watch out!!!!
Expired ProSeal actually comes alive!!! Jumping from the tube or can and attacking any living entity, human, dog cat etc... nearby, the last incident inspired the movie "The Blob" and again 20 years later with "The Blob 2" Please don't subject us to "The Blob 3" Bury that stuff at least three feet down!!!
Or go ahead and use it, try to be in a fairly warm environment and give it a little longer time to cure and might not stick as well or "adhere" in other terms. Hit it with the heat gun for a second after you through.....works wonders to help it stick and cure...don't melt it away just warm it up.
Back to cocktail hour!!! Hickup!!

If it were me, and it's been kept in the freezer, I'd easily go
another 6-12 months on it. It will still cure, just maybe
not as quickly, as it gets a little older. Older than a year
though, and I wouldn't use it for anything fuel tank related.
Actually, as long as you don't use it for fuel tanks, I would
stretch the life out considerably, but just keep it in the
freezer. I still have a can in mine, and would use it to seal
things up as needed for quite a while...just not fuel tanks.
