CAE Quiet Kote spray damper

ok well years ago i bought this spray can made by Cascade Audio Engineering, its called Quiet Kote vb-1s pro. its a spray can that can be sprayed inside vehicles to deaden sound, and also be used to spray inside sub box's to "seal and improve performance" but the catch is, i never used it, and the expiry date is for 2004 LOL talk about keeping it around for a long time lol, think its still usable, or even worth using inside a box? im about to build a new box and figured if i dont use it now its garbage, so use it or toss it? (its been stored in a cool place)

(this will be sprayed inside my new box)

You'll be lucky if it still sprays. I had a can of it and after a couple of years it wouldn't spray

haha I love that stuff, I did my whole blazer with it.
I doubt it will work, but give it a whirl.

throw it in the microwave for about 30 seconds to warm it up... that should do the trick
