I like to mix by percentage and this measurement isn't on the cup.

Great idea, but some printing is hard to read
a year ago
Indexing the side of the pails is a great idea for people who need to measure a two part product. On the quart size pail it looks and works great. But on the smaller pails the printing is faded and blurred and almost impossible to read. I had to compare the markings on the small pail with the quart sized pail to figure out which marks to use and I couldn't be too sure of the marks themselves. I don't know if all the small pails you sell look like this, or if this was a bad batch. So I'd recommend these only with a big ""but"".

I use these things to mix a fast setting urethane resin. These things are sold as 1-quart cups. They may hold a quart, but they will be too full to allow stirring without spillage. The highest measurement listed is 750 ml, so I thought ok, I'll just make that much. No problem, except that the mix is 50/50, and there is no 375 ml mark on the scale, so I have to guess. I know I'm not in your primary market, but I was disappointed in this product. I thought I had purchased cups I liked from you before that were a different brand, (TCP Global, or something like that?) and worked fine. These, not so much.

Along with the brushes I purchased from JD, the containers are great for the small quantity of finish that I mix or thin for my projects.

Q: null I'm mixing a 5:1 ratio in the cups. But how do I know what lines to pour to?
12 years ago2 Answers
A: That depends on how much end product you need. If you need 6 oz of epoxy, first fill the cup to the 1 oz line with hardener (I assume that it is 1 part hardener to 5 parts resin, and not the other way around. I am also assuming that it is epoxy that you are mixing), then fill the same cup to the 6 oz line with the resin. Mix thoroughly and apply. I hope this helps

Q: null I just received my order and need to mix paint 1 to 1 ratio and just want to make sure I understand the ratio markings on the quart container that came with my order. There are two columns on the 1:1 scale, each going up to 4, so how does that work because the gradients in the second column are greater than those in the first column?
