I bought a bottle of Stabil, gas stabilizer from my local hardware store.
I has a nifty built in dispenser in 1/4 and 1/2 oz increments and the
bottle itself has 1 oz increments on the side.  I dumped the contents and
replaced with acetone and then put the bottle inside a coffee can.  24
hours later it still is intact.

I will as soon as I can find a container that it does not dissolve!  I
need
ounce markings on it so I can dose the right amount each time.  I tried an
AMSOIL Cetane Boost bottle that was perfect but when I filled it, the
thing
turned translucent (was clear as glass) and began to get baggy inside 15
minutes!  I drained it and the bottle finally just melted into a blob. Any
ideas?  Glass is not good since you can't squeeze it to squirt the acetone
into the filler tube.  I don't want to strip the paint on my new car
dripping acetone down the side of it!
