Salifert Numbers Fading Fast

[john.m.cole3]

I have an issue with the syringes salifert provides with each test kit. after about 3 weeks, the little lines and numbers fade away rendering the syringe useless. Mine are always at the top where it reads 1.0 ml. Does anyone else have this problem? Have a solution? Or could recommend an after market syringe?

Keep your salty fingers off the print.....mine last forever if I'm a little conscientious about it. If I forget, it's the same as you describe....within 2 - 3 uses the print is half gone. Salty fingerprints seem to be the main problem though....so just don't touch the print. (I think those syringes are dirt cheap if you wanted to buy a box of extras.....I've considered it, but the problem never actually got that bad. The whole kit is disposable, after all.
