1 = Galvanized Steel or Terne Plate Use when chemical purity is not critical. Some chemicals may adversely affect paint.
|
2 = Polyethylene Use for storing acids/caustics and other corrosive chemicals.
|
3 = Stainless Steel Use when chemical purity is critical.
|
Y = Yes N = No * May discolor solvent if water present.
CAUTION: Resistance to mixed solvents is unpredictable. Guide DOES NOT apply to mixtures, even if the can is compatible with all components of the mixture.
