i just use an old coffe tin. It is completely sealed and water proof. But then again i only use nail vrnish remover to get my tyres off. So pure acetone might eat away at the tin faster.

it has to be an airtight container, and store it somewhere nice and cool, also, try not to breath in the vapour either.

theoreticaly, you should be wearing gloves to protect your skin, as you will find, it will suck all the oil out of your skin, and if you got a break in the skin, or a cut or skin problem, it will sting like hell.

We used to use if for cleaning aircraft components, it is evil stuff, also the vapour is ery flammable.
