How to destroy a tin of Solani Silver Flake: another senior moment.

Got a tin of 3.5 oz. tin of Solani Silver Flake today in the mail. The tin didn't appear to be hermetically sealed like most other tins. So I figured I'd put it in a vacuum sealed bag to keep it from drying out. I didn't realize that my vacuum-sealing device would almost totally implode the tin! Guess I'll be jarring this.

Vacuuming sucks......

Looks to me like it's sealed as well as it would be in a jar :)

You have a point there. I haven't cut open the bag yet; maybe I'll just leave it be. I have it in two more layers of zip-locs.

I had wondered about putting a tin in a vacu-sealed pouch,,,,,,now I know.:trolldoll:
