Can you store polyester resin in plastic PET bottle

[Contec]

15 minutes ago I broke the plastic funnel/cork thats inside my can of polyester resin.:cry Now i can't close it up. I have temporary sealed it with duct tape and put it inside 3 plastic bags.

Will the polyester eat the plastic bottle or do i need to find a metall can to put it into. ? Or a glass jar?

Im thinking of using a bottle like this one :

you shouldnt have a problem as long as the container is super duper obsessive compulsive disorder anal clean.

A Gatorade bottle may be a little more durable.

Just becareful the resin will gas off and could build up some pressure in the plastic bottle. And possibly split it open.

And if you have little kids running around or any adult of below average intelligence, label the bottle or just put a Mr. Yuck sticker on it. Just to be safe...

That seems like a bad thing...Hmm, I better see if i can find a glass jar or an empty metal Paint bucket.

It always comes in a metal container....at least each time I've bought it in a store. I'd be a little weary of using plastic for the above mentioned reasons.....:confused

Some resins can be effected by UV as well.

That sort of bottle would work, I will try to locate a one of these. It would be easy to pour from aswell.
