On the finishing forum only because that is where I use the most chemicals....
I have tried many bottles for small quantities of those ugly chemicals like lacquer thinner. Things that I like to use a few drops at a time on a rag, etc. But some of the ugly chemicals destroy the bottles.
Recently I found that the empty Sweet 'n Low bottles work VERY well - nasty chemicals seem to have no impact on them. And with a sewing needle, I can enlarge the hole from a drip at a time to a small stream. I now have a way to keep my choice of solvents readily available.
