    Regarding solvent and evaporation issues: I use high grade Kimax-
    rubber coated and nalgene/vinyl gasketed glass bottles for solvents.
    They are superior to any metal cans and can be reused over and over
    with a soap and warm water wash.they are also unbreakable! If any
    one wants the supplier email me off list and I'll send the link. The
    cheapest available (that I know of) for a 1000ml bottle is 8 bucks
    for one piece. Additionally, Nalgene bottles,cans,pails and drums
    are leak and evaporation proof and come in a wide range of sizes,
    mouth styles and cap styles from metal and phenol with a pulp or
    vinyl insert to those with enameled coatings and chemical proof(wet
    and dry) inserts. Berlin packaging is the cheapest wholesale source,
    but has a division called Freund, that sells retail ( small
    quantities) and single items, as well as offers clearance and surplus
    sales on assorted storage containers. They will also beat any price
    with which you supply them from competitors or printed ads. I have
    used nalgene and kimax for years to store acids, solvents and other
    volatile, flammable, inflammable and hazardous materials and
    chemicals without leak, or evaporation, or breakage and recommend
    them both highly.
