Does Bag Balm® Get “Too Old”?

Q: Does BB (Bag Balm®) ever get too old? I’ve been working on this 10oz (I think) can for some time. It is darker than when new. Still smells the same… I hate to give it up! I was raised on the stuff, so were my kids, so are their kids and now a great grand daughter.

No, Bag Balm® doesn’t go “bad” but you may want to make sure your can of Bag Balm isn’t so old that it has the old formulation, which contained mercury compounds. It should state that it contains 8-hydroxyquinolone on the side of the can.
