I would like to store gas/oil mix for my landscaping tools in a handy
cannister, but can find nothing smaller than the one gallon size.

Can I use a two quart Clorox bottle or something of a similar material?

Will such plastics deteriorate or mix with gas in ways which will damage
motors?

Have you other suggestions?

(Of course I would mark the container clearly for safety purposes.)

Thanks for your help.

I cannot think of any common plastic disposable containers that are
soluble in gasoline but you would be making a serious mistake to store
gasoline in them.
For example, I've had old PE bottles with just water in them break and
leak in the garage. Light and air degrade plastics. Heat and solvents
accelerate.

Better to use a metal container such as an empty paint thinner can.
