Tyre (tire) lube storage question.

Previously I used a "euro paste" type tyre lube which the lid ended up breaking so it went mouldy and eventually dried out. That probably could've been resolved by not leaving the tub in the weather to degrade and break. This time however I'm looking to use the liquid type lube. I believe it will be better for getting into old tyres and in garage journal fashion, I have now bought a proper tyre machine which has a nice tub attached for it. My question is if I leave the lube in the tyre machine's open tub for many months, will it go bad? The one I've ordered is "tech tire 720 Rim Ease". Thought I'd ask before wasting some as an experiment.

If it will go bad, I'll just use it straight from the bottle but I'd prefer to use the nice tub if possible. I could put the tub inside a sealed container if necessary.

Mine evaporates. It lasts a little longer if I remember to leave the applicator stuck in the opening to close off the air. I have kind of converted to the paste lube in a sealed container.
