This listing is for an original product, it is an 8 oz unit as sold by Smooth-On suppliers (Smooth-on do not sell tubs smaller than 8 oz so if you are offered a smaller sample pot it will have been repackaged).
We are an authorised reseller for certain Smooth-On products and this is an original product packaged by the manufacturer and the tubs are sealed at source. The tubs have not been opened or repackaged and have come directly from the distribution centre and so are fresh and the shelf life will not be affected.
