These are really good for sealing chemicals. Especially in wine bottles!I knew a photographic research lab that only used similar bottles with such caps (aluminium caps with moulded seal).
However, one may argue on the risk of corrosion of the aluminium if in contact with the liquid. Though one may wipe the thread of the bottle before capping.
I likely would not work with pure benzene, furthermore it is practically banned here. I guess you mean gasoline...

I'm strongly against the use of food container for chem storage due to the danger of mistaking it for food one day but, technically, it may work.So I'm just wondering if I can save a few bucks by not buying amber glass bottles and using these 1 liter olive oil bottles for mixing the C41 developer? They're tinted, so I don't see why not, but I want to make sure.

No, they are much quicker to remove and they aren't a tight fit in the bottle, the vacuum holds them in place. You simply push the center valve bit sideways to release the vacuum when you want to remove it.But is'nt the chance of spoiling the content much bigger when extracting such rubber "corks", than with a srew-off cap?

I thought you were totally serious at first trendland! Thanks for the responses everyone. Normally I wouldn't worry about it, but it seems in Europe the prices on everything are a little higher on some things, so I'm trying to save a buck, and I've got a whole bunch of these bottles that I'm just throwing out!
Olive oil will come out with soap and hot water. No need to worry about that. Just be thorough. If you're really worried, take the bottles to a local beer/wine making store and use their washer. There's no reason to assume you can't get the oil out. Just don't be lazy with your efforts. Put the level of exertion into cleaning it that your parents used to put into everything they did.So I'm just wondering if I can save a few bucks by not buying amber glass bottles and using these 1 liter olive oil bottles for mixing the C41 developer?

Just tried googling that myself with similarly poor results. I find it very strange that apparently Canada is on forefront of home wine making kits/stores while continental Europe with it's long history of wine consumption has so few stores to support this activity. I can't argue with your results but I still find it very odd. I rarely think of Canada as on the cutting edge.The OP is not located in Canada. Here in continental Europe such amateur activities are just emerging. After a search on the net for some minutes I just found two such brick&mortar shops. One in Germany and one in Belgium. And both do not offer cleaning services.
Now I HAVE to try C4!Aha - thank God that there IS Photrio !
with regards
PS : Don't use C4 :
What makes them easy to clean? Hydrogen Peroxide having turned into water though the bottle being coloured?I've also used hydrogen peroxide bottles. They're even darker than wine bottles because the light turns hydrogen peroxide into water. This makes them easy to clean (all you need is a couple rinses of water and let it dry).
What I would like to mention is the following : PET is just fine (from all kind of colors), Glass is just fine (from all kind of colors) airtight is just fine (from 99,2 % till 99,897%), temperature is just fineNow I HAVE to try C4!
Yes I agree total - to wash your hands with pure benzene isn't against healthy!Benzene has recently been un-banned in British schools....so the 40 year old bottle of benzene that I've been hiding for my 19 years in my job can finally come out again....indeed it was needed two weeks ago.
For what its worth, my old chemistry teacher used to wash his hands in pure benzene in the 60s. He's still very much alive and healthy in his retirement, flitting between the UK and Thailand where he has a young lady and a second home.

You give beer a chance to go bad?Beer in green bottles goes skunky before amber-bottled beer.... Connected?
