How long can you go past the expiration date on the fuel tank sealant if
you kept it in the freezer since you received it.

If you are using it for anything critical like sealing your tank, I personally wouldn't go much past the date. Tank sealant is cheap compared to the $time$ and aggravation of fixing leaks in a tank.

How about 30 years???
I'm not kidding. I had kept original proseal from my BD-5 project
.... don't ask ..... in my hangar refrigerator and only recently
needed a small glob for a fuel tank leak on my Pitts. It cured just
like it did so many years ago. The base stuff had separated with an
oily substance on top, but after a very long mixing session and help
from a piece of stiff wire in a drill was workable. Tank now installed
and leak-free.

Having said all that, I don't think I'd use it in a place where
performance is critical or the place is inaccessible. The stuff just
isn't that expensive.
