Question about hdpe #2 laundry bottles

[gigisiguenza]

I know the body of the bottle marked with hdpe 2, but does anyone know if he's pour spout and cap are as well?

ETA I'm thinking of using it for a master batching of lye solution but am nervous about storage so wanted to know about the cap n pour spout.

I've been searching on Google looking and only one place gave me a direct enough answer to satisfy me...

Here's a link for anyone else who's interested

That's a good question, Gigi. From reading the link you gave, it looks the covers/spouts of my Arm & Hammer detergent bottles are either HDPE #2, or PP#5- both of which are compatible with lye. I've not had a single problem storing or pouring lye solution from them in all the years I've been master-batching with them.

That's the conclusion I came to also IL
