Default Sewing mach oil bottles

What is with sewing machine oil bottles? Every time I oil my machine (with every bobbin change - I'm good to my machine) the bottle is covered in oil. I'm also good to my sewing machine oil bottle and I clean it off every single time I'm through with it. But a month later ... it's COVERED in oil again!! I swear the plastic is porous and the oil is so thin it "seeps" right through. I've learned to first grab a paper towel before I grab the bottle, but I still have to wash my hands when I'm done.

Does anyone else have this problem with plastic bottles of sewing machine oil or is it just me? I have to keep my bottle on a piece of paper towel in the bottom of sewing cabinet.

So much trouble for one little drop of oil.

Sheesh.
