The only downside I can really see is that after it's open a while it becomes thick and viscous and the shelf life is rather short. I'm not sure if you can thin it. Others will know. My bottle has been open a month, it's half full, but noticeably thicker.

I spray a little blast off in the bottle to displace any oxygen before putting the cap on. It last for months this way.
