« on: September 14, 2008, 10:17:08 pm »
Hi Everyone,
                  Might seem daft but whats the best way to measure out chemicals?
Say the mix needs to be1:33 for example ?
Just started up .
Many thanks,

Hi Jackie

All products should give you the dilution rates on the label.

The formula if you want to do the maths is:

amount of water(litres) x 1000 - divide by dilution rate = precise amount of product

eg; ten litres of water in a bucket - to achieve a dilution rate of 1:200
10x1000 divide by 200 = 50ml of neat product

hope this helps
