What I want to know is once I mix the muriatic acid & hydrogen peroxide, what is the best container to store it in; I know to not use anything metal. I was thinking of a container that is water tight once it is closed but I don't know of anything that will work easily enough.

Watch the seals on food containers. I had a WalMart covered
plastic tray that I used with FeCl (storage and etching tray) for
several years before switching to over to muratic acid and H202;
the seals turned to "chalk" in a couple of months.

I've been using plastic ketchup bottles as storage for the
last couple of years.
