Great suggestion. I wanted to get another color, but the only one at Ace
besides red was blue, and then only for 5-gal cans.

blue cans are for kerosene. not the end of the world, but its still
best to
put gas in red cans so someone else doesnt get confused. just get a
small
1 gallon can and mark it well with the gas/oil ratio you are using it
for.

Roger that, then. Thanks!

Now, red I can understand (a quick google shows that blue is kerosene
and yellow is diesel), but why must it be opaque?

And why *isn't* there a separate color for oil-gas mix? Sheesh.

because you would need to use about 100 colors to cover all the
possibilities. although you can always go down and buy a can of spray
paint...
