    shake it like a salt-shaker

    do you need to shake your vials before you use them? Does it even matter with water or oil-based? Or is there no difference?

    you would only need to"shake" an amp mate and thats only if some of the oil is caught at the top,why do you think you might have to shake vials?

    I dont know just wondering if you would need to shake up the chemicals before using them and that would make it more effective maybe... sorry if it sounds like a dumb question...

    I usually give my vials a turn over before I draw form them. I don't shake them, but I mix it up a bit. Not so much out of necessity, rather from habit. I'm in a chem lab all the time and it's just common practice for me there. Hell I even shake my milk before I pour it.
