Give it a rest already. Way to ruin a thread guys.

And on topic, yup, has happened to me more than once. They loose their opaqueness and go hard again if you wash and hang them but I've not used one again. I changed to all Eva Barrier and duotights and haven't thought about it since!
 
Here's a duotight fitting that was exposed to starsan foam bubbling from a blowoff for a few days.

Nice chemical fracture. Never had this happen with John Guest fittings.
 
Yeah, it's been hanging"/"drying for days and the tubing still feels sticky... I'm throwing it out. Next time, I will heed the "2 minutes" instructions.
