What can be used for resealing partially used contents: glue, paint...
I am just wondering if I anyone has suggestions for a re-usable containers,
or cheap enough, or commonly available so you can get rid of the extra air in mostly used containers. It could be anything from 2/3 gallon, down to an ounce. Although glass is breakable, if I had them I'd go do all my paints right now. Not only would it be done, but you have a very high likelihood that you could clean it out after and re-use it for something else later. Is there special glass for this type of application? I am mainly concerned about the locking potential of the top. Peanut butter jars: are they any good? What about adding something to the seal to get it hermetically sealed (air tight), like wax paper in the thread: this doesn't sound particularly appealing though. preferable these containers would come right from the grocery store, after I have eaten the contents. I don't want to spend a lot, but a little, if specific. I have (gallons/liters/other) cans of various things that get to be less than half full and then even when sealed they end up drying out. With a gallon can of paint, when you get down to 2 inches you can't even be sure if you have enough to paint a pencil if you had already done a couple in the past. I am thinking about things like glue, paint, stains, somewhat thinners, etc. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
