Once you have closed the lid leaves the side a little bit open and pushes in the middle to really remove the air and then close the lid well so he will be tightly sealed when you're shaking the bottle! :-)

Awesome tip, thank you so much! Always scary flipping those things around =P

Thanks so much! Appreciate that!

Great video, how many times can you reuse the chemical? What is the shelf life after mixing? Thanks

[@HamiltonWard]

Thank you! It depends on the chemicals that you use. The manufacturer will usually tell you the estimated time. I think this one is around 8 but I could be mistaken. You'll start to notice some odd color variations and that means it's time to change to a fresh batch. Not sure on the shelf life, that again depends on the chemical but it's been a few months in a cool environment and it's worked fine for me.
