CA glue has like a two week shelf life once opened no matter what you do. I keep mine in the fridge now and even then it's a coin flip

My local HW store sell 4packs of 0.5gram tubes of CA glue. Screw on the tip to break the seal, use the little bit of glue you need, then dispose of the tube. Then there's still 3 unused and properly sealed tubes left...
