Can sodium hydroxide 2 part be safely stored in an acrylic ato reservoir. I have a spare 5 gallon trigger ato reservoir and I’d like to store more than a gallon of my 2 part additives at a time.
 
The best bet is polyethylene or polypropylene of any sort, but polymethylmethacrylate (assuming that is what your "acrylic" is, is OK with sodium hydroxide solutions at room temperature.
