Gentlemen,

Another Tip, and I'll leave you alone for a while......When I store Sterno, I have found that taking a tube of Silicone Caulking, and running a bead around the lip of the Lid, where it connect's with the body of the can itself, work's really well! What I use is a "Solvent Resistant", Blue Silicone, used in RV repair's. When I need to use a can, I just use the tip of my knife to lift up an edge of the Silicone Bead, and simply peel it off! Hope this help's.......
