Could you store acrylic or oil paints in these without drying out

I don't believe so. The lid does not have anything like a silicone gasket in it that would make it truly air tight. You'd be wasting your money.

Since they're not intended for archival purposes, I would not store valuable posters in them, nor any poster for a long period of time. If either of those conditions applies, look for bags at art supply sources.

I don't know for sure, however as long as they are kept in a cool dry place and the seals are still in place, I don't see them drying up. Once installed, they need to be used, if you remove them, you must reseal them. But watch out for your ink jets getting clogged not having any ink to keep them wet.

As long as you keep the lid tight on the container, there should be no drying out. I also highly recommend mixing in a container first then using a Badger hair brush to apply.

I just have them sitting in a plastic tray in a bathroom cabinet drawer. They don't dry out or anything.

I only use them for dry storage. Am using 5 gallon storage bottles from Academy Sports.

I store my in the refrigrator. I'm a chemist and oil doesn't expand like water. My personal opinion is that you should not have a problem. Upon getting them, you could take a small portion out and test them a couple of days in the freezeer. they should last quite a while in the refrigerator though. Also, the manufacture might help. I love this product. hope you do.

In must cases yes. If what you paint will be exposed to rain or other wet conditions I would suggest sealing.

I don't see why they couldn't. The bottles are small so depending on the size of the hands you may be only to get a couple of prints out of each bottle but that is a really cute idea! I would just get a paper plate and squeeze out all the paint.

My Guess: because these are basic water, if allowed to dry then acrylics could be used. I have not tried. operative word is "guess"

Not if you glued them carefully. A coat of Matt medium or acrylic varnish is good for waterproofing

The capsuls may be sensitive to damp/humid air,so I suggest storing in a cool,dry place,I`ve used capsuls from last year with no problems.

I have not had any trouble with reusing the paints in the contacts and I always leave it between uses. The only area that dries out is in the lid itself

I doubt it. They are indoor only. Definitely could wash off with repeated water exposure. However, you could coat them with a water proofing paint or an acrylic coating.

So long as they are dried out I don't see why it shouldn't. To be on the safe side, however, you might want to ask the manufacturer.

yes, with acrylics. Then I Spray them with Acrylic finish. Then got them wet and put in dryer. They cam out great. The paint will leak through so put a piece of parchment paper between front and back. Good Luck.

I haven't see anywhere that they should be stored upright but it seems to be reasonable. Are you sure that you are replacing the cap tightly. That will definitely dry them out.
