Gunsmithing Solvent Resistant Seal for bluing tank lid

[ugsly]

I'm looking for a seal I can put on the under side of my lid to help stop some of my solvent from evaporating. I have looked around and cant seem to find anything. Anyone have any suggestions or know where I could buy a seal to stick on there?

Thanks guys,
Kc

So the "thick rubber seal" that is on the under-side of that lid isn't good enough? Then how about a neoprene gasket added, as well? Would that not 'seal' it off better? With a weight on the lid when stored? Or store your liquid in another vessel, if for long term.

The seal isnt rubber that came with the lid. Its the peal and stick stuff like you buy at the hardware store. The solvent has ruined it over time, I had a website that sold rubber seals in a roll for solvent tanks and such. I cant remember what the site was called.

We have ball valves in the end of our tanks and just drain them back into the air tight buckets.
