<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Good Cents, post: 3355471, member: 100720&quot;]Hi GDJMSP,</p><p><br /></p><p>So, I did a search under your handle and &quot;proper storage&quot; and have been reading A LOT of what you&#039;ve written over the years.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some questions:</p><p><br /></p><p>You wrote about some materials being inert and to keep everything non-inert away from coin storage.</p><p><br /></p><p>1 - There are tubes for storing Air-tite capsules in. They are clear and have lids that are either red or black. They come in sizes A,T,H,I, etc. which corresponds with the sizes of the Air-tite capsules. Can I trust that these tubes AND their red and black lids are inert?</p><p><br /></p><p>2 - Labeling The Tubes For Identification - Even just to label the tubes with numbers &quot;Tube 1, Tube 2&quot; etc. with separate list of what&#039;s each tube in another location.</p><p><br /></p><p>2A - After reading your prior posts I learned that using paper is out of the question because it is not inert so I can&#039;t label the tubes using paper.</p><p><br /></p><p>2B - What I&#039;ve done in the past has been labeling the tubes using a Brother P-Touch Labeler with their Brother TZE Label Tapes. How can I find out if there is some component in those tapes that negatively affect the air in the ziplocks and/or container and/or jar? Chemistry was not my strong suit. I can&#039;t seem to figure out what I should be looking for on the Brother TZE Label Tapes &quot;Product Safety Data Sheet&quot;:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ptouchdirect.com/content/MSDS-TZTAPES.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ptouchdirect.com/content/MSDS-TZTAPES.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.ptouchdirect.com/content/MSDS-TZTAPES.pdf</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Another description I found on the Brother TZE label tapes with very basic info describes them as containing PET Polyethylene and Acrylic. Do you know if those are inert?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>2C - What about using a Sharpie marker on the tubes? Is the ink inert?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>3a - Is the &quot;Foam&quot; that Air-Tites uses for its ring-capsules inert?</p><p><br /></p><p>3b - Can said &quot;Foam&quot; be used as filler inside glass mason jars to prevent everything from jostling around?</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s all my questions for the moment. </p><p><br /></p><p>Am now off to read more of what you wrote in the past about proper storage.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
