<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 65134, member: 112&quot;]Howdy Marty - Welcome to the Forum !!</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry, but I have to disagree with your comment. But before I continue let me say that I am a huge fan of Air-Tite holders - have been for years. I recommend them almost exclusively on a regular basis.</p><p><br /></p><p>But as for their being actually airtight - let me recommend that you try a little test. Take any air-tite - close it up, completely. Place about 1 inch of water ( no more because you want a fair test - no pressure ) in a small bowl. Place the closed air-tite in the water with any small object on it to hold it down in the water. Leave it there for about an hour. </p><p><br /></p><p>Remove the air-tite and dry the outside completely with a paper towel or tissue. You will still see water droplets after drying - on the inside. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now it&#039;s much easier to make something watertight than it is airtight because water is thicker and heavier than air. So if it&#039;s not watertight - it&#039;s not airtight either.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve known this for years - I tested my first Air-Tite in the same way. Tested another brand new one just tonight - same result.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
