One of my earliest prop acquisitions - M-1 licensed T2 Endo Skull kit, cast in vinyl; purchased it from Monsters In Motion probably over twenty years ago.
Core of the kit build was interlocking PVC pipe; one locked in the skull with resin, the other in the neck.
I had stuffed the rest of skull with plastic shopping bags.
After completing the build, I had Art Craft (the shop that did the plating for the original film props) plate the skull. The processed incorporated some form of blue-green liquid, (not sure what for), and much of the liquid remained trapped inside the skull, and this thing seeped aqua liquid constantly over the years.
Two weeks ago, I shipped it from CA to TX, and it was on its side in the box.
TWENTY years later, this think is still leaking blue-green fluid...!
