Package size is too big
I bought this product about a month ago, while the packaging, etc. is great, I do complain the label is too simple, this chemical has many other alternative names and are more commonly used, they should be put onto the label. You company should also has smaller packaging bottle, such as 100 ml size, only has one size (500 ml) to fit all type of usage is simply not a good practice. In my case, I only use 5 ml at a time and 2 - 4 times a year, 500 ml bottle is simply too much for me.
