Thank you to everyone that responded. It appears that I am going to have to order some new gaskets!

Hello everyone,

We have several fluid preserved specimens in French "Le Parfait Jars", and we have found that over time the gaskets (from Le Parfait) tend to turn soft and "melt."

Has anyone else found this issue with these or any other gaskets? Does anyone have a solution?


Thank you,

Justin Mann
