Hi all,

I have been using Royco 782, as it is more fire resistant. It comes in a quart can with no way to re-seal the can. I am pretty sure this stuff is hygroscopic (i hope I have that word correct: absorbs water from the environment) and needs to be tightly sealed.

Any idea if it can be stored in a polyethylene bottle or something like that?

Bottle

We used to store in a safe bottle and squeeze the air out or add marbles.
Not sure what material is inert to the fluid.

I bought a few of these from McMaster-Carr to store fluids in. They seem to work well for the 782 fluid. They have a coated paper seal in the cap.

I like the idea of adding marbles to reduce the ullage space.

I put mine in a Gatorade bottle and labeled it accordingly.

On the quart tins I drill a #40 or similar 180 deg apart and screw a sheet metal screw in each one for a seal.
