How will the properties of Denatured Alcohol be changed if stored in a plastic
container instead of a metal container? For example, will some elements in the
plastic break down over time or is the product light sensitive? I occasionally
use denatured alcohol as a fabric spot cleaner and would like to transfer it to
a plastic container with a convenient pour spout. Will such a container alter
this product? I can't seem to find answers to these questions anywhere. Thank
you so much for your help!
