Looking for recommendations on storing my mixed ink-type of container and location.
12 years, 1 month agoFor long term storage it’d be metal or glass. For medium term storage WAXED paper cups. Under no circumstances is plastic really good, as the ink solvents will outgas through the plastic, leaving the ink as a skin on the outside of the cup. Plastic is good for a day or two, but for more than that, use something else.
12 years, 1 month agoI fold it up in a piece of tin foil and tape a little tap-out test on the outside so that I can see what color it is.
12 years, 1 month agoI had a mess of ball 4oz jelly jars lying around. they’re wide mouth and shallow so they’ve been great.

11 years, 11 months agoHi Judith, that sounds very interesting, where did you get these boxes?
11 years, 10 months agoI have had good luck with using tubes (sold for paint etc)….
I however love Judith’s idea, they would stack well! Have a photo?
