One thing you need to keep in mind. "resistant" doesn't mean proof. When tubing is labeled "resistant" that means it doesn't break down in the presence of of the substance. Doesn't mean it doesn't leak like all get out.

A lot of the tubing I have seen on eBay is silicone.

Polyethylene will work fine.

Book mark this chart. It helps a lot. Now if we could get one of the big brains to explain what the measurements are.
