hi' i need advise on immersion silver PCb shelf life. 1) what is the shelf life for Immersion silver PCB? 2) iF PCB expire, can we bake the immersion PCB? what temp & duration? 3) How long can we keep the pCB again after rebaking? (with vacuum seal)

I have been using silver coated boards for over 3 years and with a Qualitek No-clean solder paste and have used primarily the same convection reflow profiles as Hasl boards.
