They are packaged in plastic, so it's odd they dry out...
Some feel dried out, hence the reason for the post. These are from when they first came out.

Ah right, the baby wipe containers. They eventually withdrew them didn't they? I think drying out was a problem.
Having said that the instrument polish wipes feel close to dry even straight out of the current plastic sachets. I wonder if it's possible to rejuvenate the dried out ones by sprinking just a little bit of water or alcohol on them? Try them out on something other than a guitar first.
Fretboard conditioner wipes are oily. Very oily. I'd be surprised of they dry out.
Anyone else like to comment?

I had a baby wipe container of the Fretboard conditioner, the last few out of it were dried up, I had it start to finish about 3yrs.
The individually wrapped ones as they are today (box of 6 usually) I cant ever see it drying out in its unopened individual packet as its air tight (one wipe will do 2x necks easy)

Of the fretboard conditioner, I have one carefully folded back into it's packet and kept in a ziplock bag that has done three and will certainly see a fourth! I got two uses out of the instrument polish.

I had a baby wipe container of the Wonder Wipes, and they dried out after two or three years. Not a surprise, the same thing happens with actual baby wipes, though those usually don't stick around long enough to dry out. I can't imagine the individually-packaged wipes have the same issue.

And if nothing else, they are cheap so getting a new box is a no-brainer. Wish GC stocked them...
