I also find tons of other uses as well...like storing small amounts of grout or paint for touchups, keeping small parts of a project together.

Works great.

We started with the ones listed but found these work better. Easier to mix the ink at the bottom and if you drop them they won't break or crack. Yes they will stand up to plastisol, discharge, WB and the silicone, I have also user them for solvent based inks but not for long periods.
